    Happy New Year everyone. 50p gone into pot this morning :j

    Well I made it through New Year's Eve without any alcohol yay! I know it's not on topic, but it is sort of, cos it's gonna save me loads of money! Normally I would be waking with a hangover! Feeling very smug lol ! However, its only day 4 so I'd better not be too cocky lol.;)

    Congratulations mommy! I have to admit that I was bad and did have alcohol (quite a lot), but it had been paid for a month ago. I made up for it by having five hearty glasses of water before bed :)

    Happy New Year everyone :j :j


    I put a whopping £1.64 into my terramundi last night, had been saving up shrapnel for a few days then decided to clear our my purse of everything under £1, not much, but every little helps....

    Today I'm unofficially starting the live on £4,000 for a year challenge, so not sure how often I'll put anything in my pot from now on, probably just pennies I find in the street etc, but if I'm good, will aim to put in the "leftovers" from monthly budgets.........:rolleyes:

    Don't think I'll be adding anything to my pot today as we didn't go out last night and today I'm having a NSD but I wanted to drop in and wish everyone a very Happy New Year and happy saving! May everyone's pots be full come December :D
