    Afternoon everyone
    Another soggy £5er found today while walking the dog, strangely enough though, no coins. If you're going out, get well wrapped up, it's cold out there

    Hi there,
    Can i join in! Cant remember if i joined in at the end of last year- i remember reading the thread and being impressed!! My (non-sealed) change pot for the year had £108 that i can change at the bank and a further £26 in change- so the 108 is going in the ISA for holiday svaings.

    I would like to set a challenge of £300 as it will be me and the boyf taking part and think we could manage this! although trying to reduce spending so will have to see :)
    First home- Oct’16 until June’21: £170.995- Overpayments made £13,784 (25% extra!).
    New forever home- Sep’21 £309,449 @ 2.05%. Plan to clear it before 30 years!!!!!!

    Hiya sparky! Not doing too bad, but will take a while longer with this cough for sure. We had a GREAT Christmas thanks, too smashing days one with daughter and family and yesterday with our lad and his wife, the type of days that you thoroughly enjoy! You and DW too I'm sure. Oh dear, she's more than welcome in that kind of traffic, poor lass. I hope she's soon back home and safe.

    I see you've already been over the park trying to pay for your Christmas then!! :rolleyes: ;) No luck today then ...better luck tomorrow! How about that total now! :eek:
    Tara for now sparks .

    I've realised my problem with this... I never know when to put money in! I have spare money, but then I think no - I might want to spend it.... then eventually it gets spent, and doesn't end up in the pot!

    I really want to go shopping in the sales (hopefully it wont be too manic!!) so I'm not wanting to put anything in... I think I'll put all of my spare change in when I'm done.. makes sense.

    I think you're getting there JaneLiz. :rolleyes: Me? I never think twice, any loose change just goes straight in the pot - no doubt about it. All the best... I think you need it!!! ;)
