collected all the lose change found around the house all week and i have put in my box,to start me off,didn't count it though are you supposed to?
SPC no:0760 -
Hi dizzybee and I'm so chuffed that you've made your start.
NO, you don't have to count it, you please yourself. Most of us count it roughly, then pot it and forget it. It might sound as though it's impossible to do that, but you will soon enough. Mostly though SPC is all about YOU saving as you wish!
All the very best, dzzybee!

Well done everyone and enjoy spending your money.
I have just counted mine and have £220 in ours and £40 in our charity pot. I think I may have joined too late this year for this to count.
I have started for next year and want to save £500.
Thanks to Sue and Co for their hard work.Sealed Pot Challenge 1441
52 week challenge started again £2/£139

A massive well done to everyone for some fantastic totals.
My total for SPC4 is £135.75 :j:j:j:j:j:j
I am thrilled to bits as only been saving for 3 months but a bit shy of my over ambitious target of £150.
A massive thank you again to Sue and Sparky for all the hard work they do to encourage us all to save.:T:T:T:T
Target for SPC5 is £300, would prefer it to be nearer to £500 but just found out that hubby is in the pot for possible redundancy.:(
Well done again and look forward to saving with you all for 2012.:beer:[SIZE=2]SPC4 #1395 Aug 11 £135.75/£150
