    I am doing the £365 challenge so I am going to transfer £7 weekly into an E account and then use my change for the Sealed Pot. I started the pot in one of those Poundland sealed tins, but have put it somewhere safe and cannot remember where!

    Wanders off muttering..........."must get more organised". :)

    Hello and welcome to the thread mariagti, raven-333 and BabyBetty, lovely to meet you and is never too late to join us. :D Enjoy yourselves with us and have great fun saving. You'll find your numbers at the bottom of the list on post 2 of page 1. If you haven't already done so then read through posts 1 & 2 as it'll help you with any queries. If you can put your number on your sig it would be great.

    When is it you go to Poland? LC?


    Oh dear Larmy, Christmas gone to your head...so soon? :rolleyes:

    Good to see we've all still got the saving bug. I heard hubby's pockets jingle today ....not for long they didn't and I soon fished out 65p!! :D Must get a move on as our lad and his DW will be back for tea in a jiff!

    Keep on saving ALL... If anyone isn't sure of the Grand Total, please check my sig as it's there for all to see. Let's see if we can get it even higher this time around - as the higher the total goes - the more has been saved by us all!!!
