    Welcome ali.rtw.traveller
    Official welcomer sparky here, we're waiting for Sue to get over her injuries from a nasty fall, so please consider yourself in the challenge and once she's back online she'll allocate you a number. :D

    Thanks Sparky and Footiemad, i already have a jar with a few coppers in so will be looking to add to that a fair bit.

    Been on holiday for 3 weeks so not been able to put anything in for a few week and before then didn't have any change! but have put £1.45 from purse into big tin today :D

    Whilst on holiday managed to get a couple of nice sealed tins one of which already has a use, my passport needs renewing :(, so when i've got a £1 spare (anything after this first £1 will be going into big tin) it'll be going into the little tin, I'm certain I can get the £80 (roughly) i'll need towards passport in to it, and I managed to start it off with £2 already today :), will be opening it either when I need it or once it's full.

    Hello All,
    I am new to this forum but have been looking at it for a long time.
    I'm looking to save around £3000 in the next few years.
    £1000 to pay off a credit card i stupidly got and £2000 to clear my overdraft.
    I have a sealed pot on the go and hoping that this will collect about £500 by december.

    Any other saving tips would be greatly appreciated.
    Hannah :)

    Evening everyone,
    Just received an email from Sue's DH, so here is below ;)
    Thanks a lot for the additions to the member list, I hope it won't be
    long until Sue's back there and able to put them all on. She's not
    doing too bad but the arm and ribs are still taking a while, but
    knowing her she will be wanting to get back just as soon as she's
    able, so she will be willing both to hurry up! Please give her love to
    everyone. Right now she's really bored!

    She says to thank you so much for putting a message on the quitting
    smoking thread, she nearly said to ask you at the onset but didn't
    like to as she new you were busy at work. Thanks very much Mark, she's
    very grateful.

    Please give her love to everyone and let them know she's thinking of
    them all.


    You both take care and don't work too hard!
