    I'm keeping every 20p I get & adding it to my smartie tube!
    They're adding up nicely now :)
    I never saved before either huggermugger which is why I have joined both the clubs as its getting me in the habit of saving which has got to be a good thing! :j

    Thanks for the encouragement ( and miseter too); Sorry I haven't replied before but I've just had three days in bed with flu :( (One way of not spending money!)

    I have unofficially joined the £2 club (well I've saved £2 :D ) but this saving lark takes some getting used to & I can't go official until I'm sure I won't raid it when things get tough. Commitment isn't my strongest suit... However, (deep breath) I am going to commit the 20p's to the holiday fund and alter my signature and save every 20p I get. There, it's public now so I'll have to stick to it!

    hope you're feeling better now huggermugger :)

    well done on your savings so far & for making the commitment! :j

    I'm sure you'll build up your fund in no time, I love saving now & it feels nice to have some money to fall back on

    look forward to seeing how you're doing, good luck! :)
  • btw, I most certainly was not ignoring you mcolleta and from my experience of this thread (and this board) I don't think anyone else would either. Like piglet, I came across this thread because it was high in the current discussion list and because it was headed "20p savers club" :D

    It's an unfortunate situation and it would be good to have it resolved amicably. As suggested a merger would be good. Could miseter & mcolletta share the admin/updating? It does seem to be growing fast (in more ways than one!) and could easily become quite a big job... Go on, shoot me down.... :rotfl:

    Huggermugger, I just want to echo what Ozzyfan said - well done on the savings and the "going public"! :cool:

    Piglet

    P.S. From time to time we all have to raid the savings pot...so don't feel bad. I always look at it this way: if I didn't have a savings pot to raid, my bank account would be looking a little less healthy :eek: - if I manage to avert a "crisis" without bashing the bank account, its a good thing, and not something to beat myself up over!! ;)
