hey - hope you're all ok and welcome to new starters - haven't abandoned you all - just had 2 NSD's on a trot (which is good) so haven't had any coins to pick from as purse is firmly empty.
Will catch up in February - also thinking that a rollover month is the way forward

Good to have you with us welshangel! You've joined just in time for February, some of us are counting up while others have carried their totals over.
Another NSD for me so a £1 coin went in. I just added up my total for January and it came to £9.10! I'm really happy with that and considering I only started midway through the month February should be higher. Well done to everyone for their savings over the past few weeks, if you want to share your totals please do or feel free to roll them over
Here's to a good first month of 2010!Total debt at LBM... £16,815.02 :eek:0 -
Well only a 10p for me today but have had a NSP so I'm happy with that
I'm not going to count my pot now I'm going to leave it as a surprise for the end of Feb
I still haven't decided what I am going to use the money for yet, just starting a DMP so don't think I can just pay it off one of my debt.
Well done to all those who have counted up and good luck everyone for next month!Crazy unorganised mum in need of help!

Hi everyone, great totals so far

My total for January £4.53, although to be honest the moneybox already had a few coins in it from previous failed attempts at saving :P.
Good luck for this month :T.Sealed Pot Challenge member no:918

Can I join in please? :j
I need to have some Savings in hand because I am self-employed and it has been somewhat quiet in January...so I'm going to use my Best Coin Forward Challenge to get a steady stream of savings money.
So, I started today and put in ..... *Pause for dramatic effect* LoL...£1 - Which I am really pleased with. I also managed to put £3 in my Terramundi for my Trip to Egypt next Christmas....
So, all in all a good day Savings-Wise...
Thank you for allowing me to Join in your Challenge...0 -
