    , don't worry, as sparky says, you're in already so's everyone else! I've updated your target for next year and you'll see I've put the amount in red so it reminds me that's it's for next year and that I don't take it out when re-doing the new thread.

    Oh dear, fishcakes, I do hope you're soon feeling a lot better.
    BTW, we start again on the 2nd December! Yes, the very next day after we finish this one!!! It's all go for sure! How about reminding folk every couple of days about those 59p sealed tins. Thanks fishcakes.

    and Applecider, I do hope you're both soon feeling much better. Why d'you need to be old to watch Downton Abbey? Hubby and I loved it ...not that we're exactly young, but our lass loves it too. You're as old as you feel ...or as your DH feels :rotfl:;)

    Hiya Paul, I never knew you had a little one. I'll bet he's looking forward to Father Christmas coming!!! :j

    You're welcome mummytogirls. :) We're a friendly lot on here so keep with us and you'll love the banter.

    oooh LC 2, you do love to make me envious don't you, though I do love that beautiful picture, worth the world!

    Don't forget all, keep on putting away as much as possible and please note sparky's plea viv0147!! Keep safe all, dry too!

    Sue x Anyone else wishing to join - it's NEVER too late. So, just say the word and you're in for next year too! :D

    Morning everyone
    Nice welcome to the newbies from the gang. 13 days to opening day. Fishcakes & AppleCider hope you're feeling better soon ((HUGS)). Managed £2.41 into the sealed pot last night also 50p into Summer 2011 fund, hoping for some more £2 coins from the pools man in work this morning. My new sealed pot is ready for action for SPC4.

    Just want to say thanks to Sue for keeping us all motivated throughout the year, you're a star hun and we couldn't do it without you ((HUGS))

    It's a bit wild and wooly out there today, so wrap up well, keep safe and warm and keep saving, one last savings push, lets smash last years total

  • Morning!

    Been a while, September I think was last time I posted! eek!

    Pot still sealed, money going in on a regular basis - off work sick today so will deposit my £2 bus money in there shortly.

    Our rule has been, change under £1 coins goes in the pot. So far so good! Have to say, it's made for a much lighter and more manageable purse!!

    Not sure when we will open it, maybe keep it going till nearly Christmas.

    Shall be popping down to Home Bargains to see if there are any of the 59p pots someone mentioned!

    Yay for saving!
