    Put a few coppers in the pot over the last few days. It feels heavy, but i reckon there's probably no more than £5 in there :o. Can't wait to count it up and bank it all.

    edit: Above message is in the wrong thread :D.

    Not added anything in VSP for a while. Payday this Friday, so fingers-crossed will have some money to transfer over.

  • Wow, what a great idea! I've never seen this thread, it's only come to my attention after reading a post by Dippykitty in "How much can you save?" thread.

    Well, I've made my first contribution to my VSP and I have £5.81.

  • Thank you for the kind welcome.

    I can feel this one becoming an addiction. I love round numbers, love all numbers but especially nice neat ones. I used to round all my accounts to the nearest £10, but I've struggled with that lately, as I have too many, including those I can't touch or add to, which is frustrating. So this will allow me the ability to do some rounding - I'll feel much better about life with that.
