In detail: Savings Goal Calculator for a £2,500 Goal saving £100/mo
Saving £100/month toward £2,500 takes about 25 months of disciplined transfers — but that's the zero-interest scenario. In a 4.5% instant-access account, the same contributions get you there roughly 1 months earlier, and you'd end up with closer to £2,550 total.
A goal of this size is usually short-term (a car replacement, a wedding, a home appliance). Keep it in an instant-access or easy-access ISA so you don't have to unwind the plan if timing shifts.
Automate it: a standing order the day after payday beats manual transfers by a wide margin. The money you never see in your current account is the money you actually save.
