Yes, newgirly, there are a lot of us mad (you're not kidding!) ...keeen savers here and this is our 3rd year of a lot of serious saving, it's great to have you here doing the same.
Fantastic mummyslittleboy!!! :T:T Keep hard at it, though please don't ever think that what any of us saves is only a little amount, it's what it means to us that counts and what we each can afford. Good luck with the additional £100!
Hi there melvis, :hello: Whatever you think it sounds a pretty good amount to me ~ so far! Keep it up!
Very well done indeed Queenriderbrekke! That's really good going.

Just packing from my weekend down south and emptied my jacket pockets.....I must have weighed a ton when my poor lovely boy was carrying me home after the rugby on Saturday, on the other hand it was a very MSE day for me £20 for the ticket, and a camelback full of vodka and juice while the boy paid for the train and took me for 'dinner' luckily military rugby fans don't seem to have much use for their small change, so there was loads to collect while I supped my drink and everyone else queued at the bar. Such a shame about the score really (since when did the Navy have space to train aboard?).It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

Been away for 5 days, and every time I got loose change I dropped it in the bottom of my handbag. The (exciting!) big count up says I've got another £12.10 to add to the pot.
