    A very warm welcome to MINMOL, susiecm3, nikki702 and thriftyscotslass. It's a pleasure to have you all with us! Have fun saving. :D You'll find your numbers at the bottom of the list on post 3 of page 1. Please read through posts 1 & 2 as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge. NB. Please pop your number on your sig, it helps so very much. NB. Pots are emptied on 1st December 2011, thank you.



    -susiecm3, all the very best with having a successful year in saving.


    Let us know how you get on with your paper mach! cow, mumslave, it should provide another challenge.

    You're determined for sure, sherry24 and I bet you catch up soon.

    Hi LC 2, another one with an MS then, good for you too. Thanks for adding your money put into your savings account. to your signature. A very Happy, safe and healthy New Year to you too.

    Your away with your saving then, Silver, good for you, it's always good to get started.

    Bebs, if each of us saved 56p per day we wouldn't be doing so badlyGeorgiegirl - it all mounts up so be pleased with it!

    Hi reb, I take it you're still talking to the rest of us then...? You know LC's jetted off again, I s'pose. Off to Paris

    for NY, enjoying too I'll bet. You might not be able to match her, Reb, but you can give it your best shot. A very Happy New Year to you too.

    Very good, FF.

    Never mind about not having saved any, Dreamer, at least you've had NSD's..a lot to be said for that.

    2p's good dippy...beats the alternative which is what I have! Same with you with 26p, SarahN..and you, weeclick. All better than nowt.

    Good for you, mummytogirls.

    One challenges loss is a gain for us and for you, janeawej! We can't always win.

    Well done, Jackies and a very Happy New Year to you!

    Such lovely, kind thoughts, Dee, thank you and well done on your savings. A Very Happy New Year to you also.

    Not too sure what you mean, Georgiegirl, but so long as you are then I guess it's good.

    You're really doing well, Melgirl, looking forward to your next weigh in. All the best for you in the New Year too.

    Excellent, frasersmum, you're really doing well.

    Hey, Lula, you're doing wonderfully so far, it's really good to see you doing so well - keep it up.

    Ahhhh, that was so sweet, jammy, it's so very good to hear of people doing brilliantly with saving when many haven't done so before. Thanks for the wishes, jammy, you know what I wish most for you though! Have a safe, healthy and Happy New Year, your young lass too.

    Kirsty822001, I'm so thrilled for you savings wise, but so sorry for you both with your health. Never mind, put it off until you're better and enjoy it all then. Wishing you both well - soon! A safe, healthy and Happy New Year to you also.

    £1.43 is very good, Footiemad. Re the Birthday cards, it depends who's the giver and who's the recipient I suppose, some can be darned expensive though!

    To everyone: Have a very safe, healthy and happy New Year in 2011.!!


    Off to the neighbours now to see the new Year in...time to paaarty!!!! :j
