    Hi LGF,

    Thanks so much for replying to me, though I couldn't do so to you as I believe you'd closed access again! ;)

    Anyway, apologies for troubling you as (uh oh!:rolleyes:) I'm sure that I now remember you asking if it was ok to continue saving until you go to France a couple of months ago :o in which case just carry on LGF and let us know your total when you open it; it'll help motivate others so isn't such a bad thing anyway.

    Many apologies and good luck with your saving, France too! We went for the 1st time in July and loved it! Take care.

    Sue

  • Hey all, can I please join in too :) I was in on the last one but have lost all my sign in details so am starting again on a new profile. I am going to try to hit £300 although will be happy with whatever as I am also paying off debts and they are my priority.

    Good luck everyone

    Thanks for adding me to the SPC 3 list - Cant believe how many peopkle are doing it this year.

    When I do open my papier mache (spelling???) pig, half is debts and half is spending (or banking depends on how much is ther and what I want to buy)

    Just one thing - so I am not confussed next year,could you change my name to Candy0107 - really should have used my full name in the PM.

    Well i've ordered my no-open money box tin from hubby for Christmas:j.

    So hoping to do a lot better this year...I'm aiming for £2/£1/50p savings and will open a copper jar too for shrapnel savings.

    Thanks Sue for my number. :A

    I won't be putting a cash target, as I want to stick with putting in what I can, and hopefully have a lovely surprise next year.

    Hello, Can I join in please? I've already started a pot, well a coffee jar, which isn't sealed :D, but I'm hoping to get hold of a tin in the sales otherwise I'll be dipping in at any given moment! I have about £10 at the moment but I have some more shrapnel in my purse which can go in today.

    I'd like to save for Christmas next year and £150 would be nice, so I'll aim for that.

    Lots of luck in 2010 everyone.
