Oh dippy, don't ever worry about that, please. This isn't a race, there's no who comes first, second or third business, it's all about every individual saving! That's the thing to focus on dippy, it's what YOU have saved and what's important to YOU as an individual. I know for sure that the amount I personally will have saved is nothing compared to many, but it will be fine for me! Sadly, I won't be making my target either as the air fare and insurance to get hubby and I to Canada next year is way beyond what I will have saved, but I'll simply alter my target and push on with my saving. You save what you can, dippy and be so very proud of what you achieve, far better than not saving any day!!!
Hi there elliemoo, :wave: lovely to see you back and getting ready for the count up!
£1 in the pot for me...hubby gave it to me, though he's unaware - yet! :kisses3:
Enjoy the rest of the day folks and close the windows to keep out the cold. Tis getting chillier down yer for sure!

I worked out a budget the other day and I've given myself £10 a week for miscellaneous spending, which is very generous of myself and I hope never to use it all. So hopefully my pot will see some action every week!Thank you competition posters!

Hi Everyone
Was all set to go out, went to the bin and decided not to bother so nice and warm watching Mickey Mouse with the LO and enjoying a cup of tea.
Hasn't this year gone quick can't believe we will be counting up again.
Sparky
I used fifty pounds to buy Christmas presents on Saturday Do you want me to add it to my sig. I already have £20 on there so shall I make it £70.? and will you know what I'm doing? Or shall I just add it to my total? Oh! I am confused!!!! Bet you are now!!
Have a lovely day everyone and keep warm
