    Mine is getting rather full - exciting stuff!

    I'm opening it in March for spending money for my trip in April - just not sure when. I'm hopeful that there will be enough in there though :D

    Hi All :)

    Shiney silver clunks for me today, i can see the change in the top of my little pig so am thinking that i might have to bust it open and bank it - either into my Isa or my saver

    Sparky/Stunty/Sueu - dont know if you guys can remember the financial mess i was in with the ex h and how i relied on this sealed pot to bail us (and then my single self) out numerous times in 2008-09

    Now when im thinking of opening my pot its because its full and becuase it should be earning me lots of lovely interest lol - its not just down to me though, you guys are an inspiration - without you the thread and the odd pm from you guys i would be in a totally different place

    !!!!!!!! thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That's what this thread is all about hun, supporting each other and you should be proud of how far you've come on your journey kid, I'm sure Sue & Stunty would agree with me, that you've come a long way, and we'll be here for a long time to support the next member who needs any support/advice/ shoulder to cry on :D

    Nothing in my piggy yet today as 4 NSDs in a row! DH is out walking the dog as I write so hopefully he may stumble across something on his travels, otherwise I'm afraid it will have to be the late night pocket raid;)

    £7 in the pot today only because I've been too lasy to sort the coins out for a while so they've accumalated!
    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.
