    Jacki,
    I am on a couple of sites where you get vouchers for inputting your shopping in and also doing surveys, so Christmas this year is paid for by them

    www.volunteer4panels.com

    Try them, it might be a bit late this year, but there's always Birthdays and next Christmas to pay for

    Morning Sparky - you're up early - or were you just going to bed?:confused:
    No pennies in the pots for me for a few days as I'm hanging out for payday tomorrow:rolleyes: I've had a very expensive month - so have to be a good chicken in October.:o:o:o
    I know some people are saying they haven't saved much - but hang in there, as they say every little helps!;)

    Hiya LC,
    I get into work early, so I can check my bank accounts and e mails, before anyone else gets in, a few nosey ones where I am, who want to know your business :rolleyes:

    Hiya everyone! :wave:I hope you're having a good day.

    £4.59 left over from today's shopping so it's all going in the pot.

    starnac another one here to wish you well with the interview, fingers crossed that you get the job!

    Congratulations LC, you've done marvellously! :T

    Don't worry about what you have Jackie, there's still a fair bit of time to be collecting more...plus rummaging through DH's pockets! We can't all make the targets we go for, we just try our best, but as with life in general, there's always something that crops up and needs the cash. Look ahead and hope for the best!!!

    Thanks for caring sparky, you're a gem!:kisses3:

    No matter what any of us think about our money saved versus others, the important thing is taking part in saving and having this to, at times, take our minds off the cash problems we have. Saving all WE can is all that matters girls and guys, never lose sight of that ........please!;)

  • evening all, I'm off to treat Future Mrs S to see the new Fame film tonight. Picking her up from work. Some road kill and shrapnel from my pockets for the jar tonight.

    Hope all are well

    Hi everyone,

    Well it's the last day of the month so I'm biting the bullet and putting all the change from my purse into the pot, it's a massive 71cents, woohoo!

    Maybe I'll try some of the other poster's methods of putting any left over shopping money into the pot, I'm just scared that the following week I won't have enough money for food :eek:


    Anyway, have a good one everybody.

    Stunty, I hope you and Mrs S 2 B both enjoyed Fame, are you doing it Orange Wednesday by any chance?
