Eliza, i recon you should have two piggies, one full one and then one to keep him company

I managed a whopping 8p this morning before work, wooohoooo lol, hopefully when pay day comes around i will be able to increase that dramatically lol

Puzzled, I think that is a really idea because if I have to get the money out of the first piggy into the the second bigger one, I would have to touch the money and if I touch it, I will have to count it and then I will know how much I have and have to spend it:eek:

£2.40 for the pot today. That's my biggest loose change haul in ages! You can tell I haven't been spending much lately!

Managed to sneak another £1.40 into the pot. Makes up for the fact that nothing much has gone in for weeks before today!

Hi everyone. :hello:

Only 37p in coppers into potty yesterday and today. Doubt anything will be going in tomorrow, I'm not at work so it should be a No spend day. :A

I'm off work now for a week and going away at the weekend, so I'm looking forward to that, and hopefully enjoy myself without spending too much. Whatever I have left out of my allowed spends will go into Potty.:cool:

Lucky Charlie, I have to agree with you, we are certainly better behaved than some I can mention. !!:eek:

Besides there's not enough room for all of us on that naughty step. !!:rolleyes:

71p in coppers added to my pot.

It's nearly the end of the month, have you all decided what you're going to do with the saved money?

When i first started this brill challenge i had no particular goal, but i think i'll use the money to pay off some of my barclaycard :j.

Thanks to whoever posted this challenge. It's really helped me to save and give serious thought to getting my @rse in gear and work at paying off my debts .

Thanks for all the great support with your fab posts :T.

Hope you all have a great debt-busting/money-saving day :beer:

Ok - so I know I was not going to empty my tins (£2 and 20p and under) until nearly the end of the year - but - my £2 tin was nearly, nearly full and so was the other one (maybe I spend too much - giving me too much change!!!!)

So - my £2 tin had £186 in it!!! - £180 for the bank and £6 back into new tin. Change tin had £47.53 - £45 for bank - £2.53 back into tins.

Now - I know that as I have debts it would be sensible to pay this money off them - but I have no savings - so as the sealed pot challenge was for my Christmas fund I have decided to bank this lot, and then next time the tins are full - that wil be paid off my debt. Sounds ok to me?
