    I've added £20 today. I've been off work, so I didn't spend on snacks and such like.

    New total £455

    Good afternoon all and hope your Friday is going well? Bit rainy here but I'm off to sunnier climes on Sunday as taking my DDad back to his home abroad. As such I will be updating from there next week, different timezone so may be a bit delayed.

    Another fiver into my pot today so I'm now up to £227.50 thanks to some interest ☺️

    Thank you for all your updates. So lovely to be on the home stretch and to have all that lovely saved up money to look forward to for either Christmas or for spending on yourself.

    Page one should be reflective of what you've saved to here. Please let me know if I've missed anything.

    Have a good week.

    another £5 paid into my account today. Thrilled with this easy saving system. I have £225 (+ £260 from last year) My intention when I started almost 2 years ago was to use the money for festive food and treats but I joined the grocery challenge and last year managed to get everything we needed/wanted without dipping in to it. I an hopeful I’ll be able to do that again this year but we will see.
