Im saving here there and everywhere now. i have a sealed pot and anything in my purse goes into it, i have my current acount, i have an ing direct account with monthly savings going in and now i have another savings account.

Hello I hope its not too late for you to count me in!
I've got a couple of jars full of change that I've been meaning to take into the bank for months, so now this gives me a reason. My savings account has been lying around not doing much for a while as well. I'm not sure what I'm saving for, possibly my holiday in September, I'm sure I'll think of something
All the coffee in Columbia won't make me a morning person...
