I've changed my mind about having actual money in an actual pot for this. I opened an Incentive Saver (i think thts what it's called) Account and set up a standing order for £7 a week on the day my tax credits go in so it shouldn't be painful. If i take any money out i won't get any interest for an entire month so hopefully i won't be tempted. The change in my piggy bank always ends up getting used for something once it's full and i'm going to have a whole flat to furnish mid Jan (hopefully!!) so it would almost definately end up getting spent. No willpower
P.S I like the idea of loosing a different kind of pound as often aswell, if only it was that easy :rotfl:

@YM20, done the same thing, I just opened an incentive saver just for this challenge, cos once the money is in a saving account I don't withdraw it. To be honest if I had the money around me I would spend it.
I have put all of Jan's money into the account as I had the money in my wallet plus I wanted to start it good cos I know in 7 days time my moped is going into the garage for major repair so might not have money to put in for Feb.0 -
