Hey LC, well done on that fantastic total! And thanks for the congrats. I'm floored she said yes. She's moving in soon. And no, I will not stop flirting.....I am one of the 63336.'It is better to have lived one day as a tiger than a thousand years as a sheep.'

Not too late at all Loz, this was our first day anyway, but anyone else can join at any time at all, it doesn't worry me one little bit.
Hello again everyone! :wave: I see you wasted no time at all in bring this thread to life, thank you so much everyone as you're each playing your own vital tole in it. It's been amazing to see just how many new members wish to join again ....a total of 36 have joined today and it's been really wonderful adding them all to the list!!!! I was amazed at the response in the latter weeks of the old challenge, but it's been truly amazing today!:D:D A very warm welcome to you ALL, forgive me for not doing this more formally, but 36..!!!! :eek: It's such a pleasure to 'meet you all', especially as it's our first day on this new thread! Keep us updated on how you're getting on, it'll be good to hear from you whether you're doing well ...or not so, it can't always be great amounts to record
Brilliant news about your PPI payments being returned Sparky, I'm delighted for you!!!! What a gift at such a time of year ..the Celebrations tub is a very apt for you this year! I'll give you 'boss'!!!
Surfbabe - ziggie the Piggie is excellent, well done! Well done Purpletea65, so pleased you're staying with us! Well done with what you gained Puzzled last time, terrific!!! Thanks for that giggle about your piggy mickey mouse love it's name too!! Brilliant Piquant ...that's the way to do it, eyes to the ground - though be careful of lamp posts! So good to see you here mumofcookers, keep up that other amazing work!;)
Since you ask mummytummy, (Sue too) I was SO excited yet so fearful of making a c*** up that it took me ages to get up the courage to post it all. I couldn't sleep, the night before as I kept waking up from dreams of threads ..and ...threads of sealed pot challenges as I'd messed it up, now you see why I was up late. Slept like a baby ...after I could get the smile off my face and had warmed my feet between hubby's legs! :kisses3: Hiya Stunty ...title was great and was instilled once I read ______post, (can't remember it now, but I will) then you quoted it, how could I resist!! Nothing mad about the way you do it Jordan, I've got 4 already and mad methods, or so my hubby tells me! Am I right in seeing your sig saying you're target is £800??? If so, I'll put it on just holler.
- laurenjs 332 - on the list already! Mogwai your sig is hysterical!!! Jess, it's wonderful to see you've got all the family involved, great going for one so young, keep money-minded! Thanks for all your support Molly as well as Sparky, Stunty, Surfbabe, Nyk, LMM, Puzzled, LC, oopalah and so many more, you all KNOW who you are and it's wonderful to have you all to help and chat with, as Sparky said on page 1 we're all here to help each other and it's so true ! Great to see you safely home from Paris LC, hope you had a very special time.
Good to see you mumzy! You still have your 'top of the shop' number! It's also great to see kids have decided to join in to with their own tins, tomorrow's money savers!
Natty68 - a note explaining about duplicates of 3 consecutive numbers was put on post 1 of the first page. - gibboelli - glad it's not just me that's a little dotty at times! Target's added too.
Please everyone, have a quick look on page 1 and just check your names, numbers and targets and let me know if there are any errors. Thanks.
Trying to save - thanks you so very much indeed for being so adaptable, I've listed you at present as being 205a ....could say you're unique!!!
Back later, off for a shower.

Yay! I'm glad there's a thread for next year already!! I was naughty and broke into my pot with tweezers to pay a bill
!
This time I think I'll aim for £200 - anything over will be a bonus!!
By the way what coins did people save to get over £1000?! I'm sooo impressed! I would have loved to have emptied my pot to count out that much!!Just keep swimming0
