    £1 today in the 'ISA' tin and £1 in the 'student loan payback' tin. I'm so glad it's the weekend as I'm absolutely knackered. Have a lovely weekend everyone and keep up the good work :beer:

    A really warm welcome to the thread DaisyChainMaker, welcome to MSE also. Lovely to meet you. :D Enjoy yourself here and have fun with saving, it's addictive mind, so be warned.! You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 2 of page 1, read through posts 1 & 2 as it'll help you with any queries and tell you exactly what to do. Though mainly you simply need to save as much as is possible for you. Then we open them at the beginning of December and it's great fun here! :j


    Don't worry about only having 5p to save gratefulforhelp, at least it's saved and will go with any other pennies or pounds you manage to get. It all adds up at the end of the year, and if you only managed £20 it's better than nowt!!

    Good to see you remembered dizzybee, we'd have hated having to share your cash between us!;)

    That a girl Skippy, savings as normal, well done for you! :T

    Reb, I can see a marked improvement in your behavior today,:eek: keep it up and you'll certainly be able to get off the naughty step come Sunday! There's a good girl!:A
    Back from shopping earlier and sorted out the 'leftovers' which amounted to £4.65!! I haven't done bad over the last couple of days.

    Have a lovely weekend everyone, it looks to be a good'n! Don't forget that bathroom sparky! :D

    Sue. New friends wishing to join us, please just ask and I'll be with you ASAP.

    Morning everybody.

    Well the sun is shinning here in Yorkshire and its a lovely day, so I'm going to have another NSD today, and busy myself with washing and gardening. It's free to do.!!:j

    Only 10p into pot today, although I do have to pop out and do a bit of shopping later, so may have a few pennies in the change.

    Hope everyone has a good weekend.:hello:

    Morning everyone!

    Lucky you Elsie - we had a glimpse of sun earlier but it is now lashing rain and I'm chilly. Am going to warm myself up by baking Twink's homemade hobnobs. I might sneak a few over to the naughty step for you Reb and Kas! :D

    Welcome, DaisyChainMaker - I love your name! :wave:

    5p is not to be sniffed at Gratefulforhelp - it all adds up! :T

    I have added 27c to piggy. I find I'm paying for everything with notes now, hoping to get change for piggy!

    Have a lovely day everyone and keep feeding those sealed pots!
    Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far! :)
    Sorry if I don't reply to posts - I'm having MAJOR trouble keeping up these days!

    Morning NualaBuala,
    How are you this morning? I just wanted to say, I read one of your post on another thread, and thought the advice you gave (to the lady who was in the middle of building her own house), was very helpful it's nice to have caring people in our gang. Good for you ;)
