As some of you may already know, I'm hoping to save enough for a deposit on a new build house in three to five years time and in order to do that I decided to open a Help To Buy ISA. Upon opening the account you're allowed to transfer an additional £1200 to get started and then a minimum of £200 each month from then on to get the £50 top up from the government each month. A couple of months ago I had no savings what-so-ever, zero! I've never been one to save unless I really put my mind to it and usually just live pay check to pay check. However, that's all about to change as I am really determined to save up that deposit!
Here's how I managed to save £1000 in just one month!
