Once again, typed up an entry, clicked "Save and Publish" and the damn thing disappeared into thin air! Ugh.
Take 2: the 52 week challenge amounts have been paid into various places (yay). Banking the Difference was not found in bill payments as such, but the difference in the mortgage repayment ($149 as per previous month), so that got sent to mortgage offset account. A bit under $500 sitting there now.
The other Banking the Diff saving turned out to be our credit card interest expense. I treat the interest expense as a bill and prepay the interest I think will be charged ($60 per card). My interest came in at around $55, so $5 saving there. B's card was the big saving with $0 interest charged! Not sure why. We swapped over the card to a low rate in Dec/Jan, and it says on the banking website 3 months interest free for cards opened between Feb & May. Who knows, maybe we got the deal too? I'm counting it as a snowflake and adding to the challenge.
As a result, B's card is doing great. I wanted it to be $3299 by March 31, it is that now (actually a bit under) so no extra repayment required there. My card will still need $29 transferred on Monday to meet my wish of seeing $4999 owing on March 31.
Hoping you all have a lovely weekend!!!

Option two is type it in a Word Processing program, copy and paste.
I've gotten to where if I've spent more than five minutes on a post to automatically do option #1. It's saved me MANY times.

I've had the same issue and if I have a longer entry, I write it in a word processing program so I have it if it disappears.
