Just you keep religiously saving all those pennies frasersmum, you'll get there - in time. We all have our dream destinations, but they have to come at the right time - it'll show itself some day you'll see, same as mine will of Canada, though due to health problems the insurers won't a colossal amount!!!

You always know how to make me feel better Sue - I hope you get to Canada, and when we get to Florida (and we will one day) I will remember that its all down to You and Sparky and your fabby thread

Ahhh, thanks frasersmum, tis true though we all have our dreams..need em in fact. However, if we achieve them all too soon - what's to look forward to. Clever little bug... aren't I?

Would love to join in with you guys but I hardly ever use cash these days - other than the odd tenner here and there for buying coffee at work and the change from that is then put into my coffee buying pot...

What I have started doing though is clearing my bank account balance down to the nearest fiver each time I check it (which seems to be more or less daily) and sweeping that amount into a separate savings account. It's a bit like the sealed pot thing - just I never actually get my grubby mits on the physical cash!

Anyway, I'm hoping that by doing this I'll be sweeping around £3 to £4 a week into the savings account so will hopefully get in the region of £200 saved up for Christmas next year

I think there is a Virtual Sealed Pot Challenge, pretty much as you described, if it's of interest...
