curly33 Your hubby won't be laughing come Christmas or shouldn't be. He should be really proud of you.
Gooner_Jimmy most of us know what we put in daily, weekly, but then forget it and wait for the surprise at the end. Take a look at the info on page 1.
You're away now then, annm06, kiwikaz and summertea all the best.

Hi again toots!!! :hello: It's really wonderful to see you back again! Do try and visit more often as it's always good to see the ones who started to make this challenge grow on the very first one. I can't believe the amount of members now, this year has seen a real spurt in folk joining, but it's so good to see you returning. Come Back in a while Toots!

It's trying to snow here too Sparks, and it's soooooo cold!
Ere you could be right Kerfuffle...do I look like a Goddess??? :happylove ooops that's sparky's secretarial get-up. Flippin heck you should be cold in Canada, but this is England remember?!
Oh frasersmum, I really do feel for you with kiddies going to their Dad's, the loss must be huge, still it's good for them to have the contact, but good for you to keep DS2 back with you, you know him best and he needs his Mum. :smileyhea
It sounds as though it was meant to be, Footiemad, also cheers you up with memories afterwards.
Brilliant Lula...you're doing just great!!
I'm getting excited for you VintageBrat!!! Enjoy all that excitement.
You're all doing wonderfully, just keep right on saving and the Total is something you'll be delighted with in December. Well done everyone!

Morning sparky, thought I'd done it last night
I feel terrible today, been up most of the night coughing, that dry tickly cough that hurts your ribs and gives you a headache :mad:
I've got to nip the corner shop in a little bit and get my lads crisps for school (first day back), so any change left in my purse will go in the bag, then the tin when it arrives.
Hope everyone else is going to have a good saving day today.2011 Sealed Pot Challenge #1238 hoping for £250 ~ saved £743.32

It's still missing :rotfl: It's a pain in the bum as I don't count 50p pieces in the challenge (When I made my pot I made the "money hole" too wee for them!!) and know I have enough to pay £10 into the bank, but can't get into the box.Good for you FF, have you found the key yet???
I'm away today for work so will hunt for it in earnest tomorrow night.
