    Bought myself and hubby a tin each. Both now at £21/£365. Have managed to rope a few friends in too, they all think it is a fabulous idea.

    I failed at last years Challenge majorly but I’m going to give it a go for next year.

    We will aim to save £2 a day and transfer it to an online savings account each month (on pay day). It will take a massive pressure off next Christmas.

    Target is £730.
    February Grocery Budget: £190.75/£350.00
    NST no. NSD 4/15
