Hi, my total to be banked from this years sealed pot is £13. I only saved 1p's + 2p's though. I will be aiming for much more next year.
Many thanks to Sue and Sparky for taking care of this thread and finally getting me into the habit of saving.

Evening everyone, good to see people coming to declare.Hi marco1dog, for the time you've been with us £220 in yours and £40 in the charity really is an excellent amount. :T
It's obviously up to you what you do, but you are more than welcome to have it count for this year. Whatever you do that's a lot to be really proud and happy with.
Did you want me to put the £500 for your Target?
A splendid amount, mumof3plusoh! Who would have thought you'd have managed to save soo much!!! :T Not to worry about being short of the Target. What a blessing your money may turn out to be IF your hubby is in line for redundancy; that's the trouble when folk don't know, but are aware someone/some people are to be laid off. Here's hoping all will be well with you, but however it turns out, please do enjoy Christmas with the kiddies. :A:A:A
Thinking of you all.

Not as impressive as some of you lot, but not bad for a first attempt I guess!
Thank you Sue and Sparky for all your hard work.
Well done to all other savers and good luck for next year!
I'm going to put my savings towards renewing my passport. Next year I'm aiming to save over £100.Sealed Pot Challenge Number 1225

Oh, it's definitely a good amount when it's your first time, Absinthe Fairy, keep on saving and you'll get more and more into the habit and be thrilled to bits with all you save. Very well done!!! :T
I've put a Target of £100 on the new thread is that ok or would you prefer not to? Good luck with it.

Evening
Some amazing totals. Everybody has done really well :T
I declared by total a few weeks ago and started the 2012 challenge then. However, I feel like I am cheating so I will open my current post and start again tomorrow. It is my Sister's birthday on Sunday so I will give whatever is in the pot to my niece to get her mum some presents. I will be back in a while to update my total for the year xxVSP Challenge 2010 No 19 - £416.09 , 2011 No15 - £497.17, 2012 No9 - £146.52. 2013 No5 - £113.92SPC4 No1066 - £948.95,SPC5 No1066 - £659.49 (2 stone 13lbs)SPC6 No1066 - Pot 1 - 3.03b.
