Confession
I opened my pot - i was seeing if i had enough to use for a deposit for a holiday next year - i worked out all of my money, and i dont have enough time to save for the rest of the payments etc so im not going.
Sooooooooooooo i was a good girl and sealed my pot again (with half a roll of cellotape) and im back on the wagon, the rest of the year until opening day will be spent continuing to save - i will not give in again
Well ........................... ill try not to anyways
Hope everyone finds some road change today0 -

Hi there everyone!! :wave:I'm back from a great week in Brittany where the weather was great.:D Only one wet afternoon and a wet journey to the port when we were coming home. Totally different from over here apparently! Hope you've all been saving well. I've kept almost 50 Euros until another time we go abroad, also just put change of around £6 in the pot.
Good to see you had a good holiday LC, lucky with the Euro pick up too, great stuff!
Well done Shelley, what a blessing with the carpet and saving on the leccy bill!!:T
