    Hi all

    I know I'm late joining but please may I have a number? I have been using my Terramundi all this year, and I'm putting silvers only in, as it was instructed on the label and I was too scared not to!!!!! :o

    I think it's about 2/3 full but it's hard to tell!!

    I don't have a monetary goal, but when it's full I hope there's enough in there for a really big treat for me (I know, I'm being really selfish!) - I really want a Wii Fit Plus, I've wanted it for over a year and I got my Wii free anyway from a supplier at work (ssshhh...;)) and I think the prices have dropped right down now to around £70 or so.

    Any remainder I will use for savings for something, whether my buffer (which doesn't yet exist) or other things...

    Thanks :D
