Since last week i've added £4 in pennies to my sealed pot. I've decided now that i'm going to use another jar for pounds and notes. I said originally I wouldn't include pounds and notes but I haven't been spending so have been left with the odd £20, £5 etc, and nothing for my sealed pot
It would take me ages to change into pennies, so i've put the pounds and notes in a separate pot to the shrapnel and i'm going to try not to count it.
It probably doesn't help me that I know i've put in £36. So I'm going to put a label on it: DO NOT COUNT:A:rotfl:
I'll add it all up in December with my sealed pot & distribute it where I see fit.:T
..Somehow I don't think it'l so easy... as other's have found. but i'm with you now guys.. we can do it!!! :T

Hi! I'm new to this forum and only found it thanks to my MSE weekly e-mail. I'd really like to join this challenge as I'd love to not get into more debt again this Christmas but also to try and clear some existing debt. I have two children so I thought I'd get really messy with them later and try and do some paper mache to make a money box. They'll love it and I'll have a practical use for what is made too:D
My goal is to save enough money to pay for Christmas 2010. And by that I mean food, drink and presents:D
