    £2 for me today.
    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.

  • 3p today but some is better than nothing although have put 5 x £2 coins into my £2 sealed pot due to DD being 14 on 27/02 and inviting her girly goos for a sleep over, and me and DH spending lots on party food and nibbles. Ah well thats whats happens when u have leeches oops sorry i meant darling children. LOL :)

    Morning everyone,

    Its that time of the month again when we have money in the account, so another £60 into my pot today. Hopefully, I will still be able to add some during the month too.

    Happy saving all.

    Its very lean times here at the moment for the sealed pot, a total of 8p today and unlikely to be any more. I am trying not to use any cash so don't get change, have to keep my eye on the floors for any dropped loot.

    Keep plodding everyone, it really is worth it come Decemeber.
  • 90p in the pot today, change left over from friends birthday celebrations last night
