    Well, this SPC is definitely an addictive saving incentive; a NSD today and felt very jittery not putting anything in the pot.:A

    Hello Sue- originally i didnt plan on having a target... but have been thinking about it and its so addictive- please can I have a target of £250. :j:j:j:j

    Thank you so much for running thread I love it, and its really encouraged a long time rubbish saver to amend her ways! I'm looking forward to being a long term member and smashing whatever I achieve this year in future years.

  • Hi everyone,

    feeling very motivated after coming across this thread. Would love it if you could add me to your list!!

    Just going to find a pot and seal it now and put the contents of my purse in it as its pay day tomorrow and I dont need to spend any money today!

    I'll be back in a minute when I've found and sealed a pot!!!

  • right, best I could do was a biscuit tin left over from Christmas, very well sealed and cut a hole in the top, all change from purse has gone in, I didn't count it but think it was approx £3-£4.

    I don't really know about setting a target think I will see how I get on this year and then set a target for next year!!

    Fingers crossed my pot remains SEALED!

    Good Luck everyone!
