  ... it could be you!
• Can I join please Mrs Cheshire?
  Put my name down as mot or something if it's easier lol.
• Thanks Mrs C for starting the new thread, I put Ј228 into account earlier for double 1 forwards and 1 backwards for Jan. So that is me up to end of Jan
• Thanks for the add, I'm going for the pound one. I'm on week 5 however I've worked it out over the year that some weeks I will pay from the higher amounts and other weeks will be lower depending upon paydays and bills coming out etc. so I won't be following a 'traditional' 1-52 iyswim.
  If I post funny amounts up it's because I'm paying to suit my income dates. I need the motivation and support
• Sounds like the perfect way to approach it
• Can I try? I will go for the Ј1 a week, not sure how I will do in the later weeks but hopefully by then things will have improved, need to think positive . Great idea, thank you
• Evening all
  Thank you for the new thread Mrs Cheshire
  I'm already on the list. But I went AWOL during last years challenge as I just didn't have enough money to keep with it. However I will try again his year but going for the 50p challenge, as Im already doing the Ј1 a day challenge too.
• Hello,
  I'd like to join please, need to start building an emergency fund up and this seems a good way to get started. I'm going for Ј1 a week.
  Thank you!
• I would like to join please! Could you put me down for the Ј1 per week challenge? Thank you
• mrs cheshire thanks for starting this new thread. I have been doing it now for 9 weeks but I didn't have a number. Please can you give me a number so i can carry on
• Will assign all the new people a number when I'm next on the laptop
• Hey am well chuffed I set up a new bank account for this challenge @ my first payment of Ј106 has gone out xx ooh I will have savings this year xx
• can I join please- will be doing the 50p one thanks x
• I'm up for the 52 week challenge, if you will have me. The first one, Ј1 -Ј52 per week. Thanks.
• Hi Mrs Cheshire....I was watching the Old Thread for last Year and wishing I had done it but I couldn't catch up to the point at which I had found the Thread....Does that make sense? LoL
  Anyway....I had already decided to do this and so I have done the first 5 Weeks....so I'm pleased with that....
  If I could have a number that would be great....and I will go add it in my Signature....
  I'm aiming to put it towards some nice Treats for myself in 2016...I want to save it all and that way I know what I can budget for next Year....And it has been soooooooooo long since I've had a Holiday that one of the things I would like is a mini-break away somewhere in Europe....that would be WONDERFUL!!
  EDIT: I am doing the first one....the traditional way, I just hope I can make the Payments later in the Year!!
• Welcome to all the new people, I have assigned you all numbers, if you could pop them in your signature.
