You'll all find them right now at the end of the list on the first post of the first page. It will also help you all to read through the 1st & 2nd posts of the thread as it explains a lot.


Well done LMMS! You got it at last!!! I think you're wise not counting, wait for that lovely surprise! You keep him well trained turbo5019 - though did it work???!!! :rolleyes:

OK Shelley, I've put your target down as £500, good luck with it, Uni too!.....Sounds as though you had a good time LC, we'll understand there being a shortfall for a while..but as soon as you can mind!!!.....Not to worry xredwebx, at least it was £10 more than if you hadn't saved!!! Keep it taped well this time!;)

Welcome! Sue will give you a number when she is next on. Then your name and number will appear on first page. You'll know she has stopped by as she will thank your post!

Thanks so much for putting that message on to Reb paybacktime2008 :T please folks, it doesn't help to put a request on twice. I mostly come on in the evenings so if you can just be a little patient until the evening or next morning I'd be very grateful. Also, like paybacktime2008, Molly, Stunty and Sparky if anyone asks a question and any of you know the answer for sure then do please tell them. :T

Well done everyone, another brilliant day's saving!:j

I picked up an ironing board in Woolworths for my sister yesterday for £3.98.

She paid for it with two £2 coins

cw18

all of a single penny from me following yesterday's shopping trip

ended up mostly using my plastic to pay, as the queues at the cashpoint were far too long for me to be bothered standing around just so I could pay in cash in the hopes of getting some small change for my jar :eek:

joanie

hello all...
Can I join too? I am going to start on the 1st of January ... must be the Virgo in me...:rotfl: I like things tidy and organised so will start bang on the new year... plus it gives me chance to find a sealed tin!

... roll on Thursday!

just a question though... what do you do with your money when it is opened? I have had problems with banks / building societies who won't take more than 3 bags at a time... do you just do it over several days?

good luck all.
