    Well done Helen,
    Thats a nice total, considering you joined us late into this years challenge :T

    Thanks Sparky - I had a really big push with saving for the last month as I really need the money this month as DH is on a basic wage for December and its not only very low but it also couldn't come at a worse time! So I decided to throw as much at the pot as poss otherwise it would just disappear if in my purse and boy, am I glad I did - wouldn't of done it though without everyone on here!!

  • Think I'm going to open my pot later tonight when everyone is asleep, my pot is so heavy I can't even lift it.

    Will post my total later on (hopefully if I do get round to it). I'm so excited and wonder if I've exceeded my £300 target.

    Hello!

    I haven't posted on here for most of the year but just wanted to give you an update....

    I set up 3 pots and they are all around 3/4 full. I would really like to keep going until they are completely full before I open them. Is this breaking the rules? If so, I'll open on Tuesday!!

    Hi again NoDebtDiva and lovely to see you again! If you'd prefer to keep on saving without totalling it all then you go right ahead!! It's "saving" that's the key word on our thread so as long as you're doing that - who on earth could criticise you! All the very best with saving!!!

    Good luck,

    Sue x

    Hi there Paul...it's really great to see you here!!! :j A really warm welcome to the thread! I always wondered if you'd come on over when you gave up the 'evils', but it's so good that you're here now!! :D You start away just as soon as you like and have great fun saving. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 2 of page 1 it really helps me if you put it on your sig please. If you haven't already done so then read through posts 1 & 2 as it'll help you with any queries, but just ask if you have any others.

    A good idea with the celebrations tin Pammy, our sparky had one for his and may still have, he's a great saver so it might be catching!! :D

    Helen a £165 is a terrific amount in the time you've been here, congratulations!!! :T
