    Could I join in please? I need to start regular savings, as last christmas was a huge worry, although I got there in the end.:T

    I've just put £12 in change in a pot. Its not sealed, but will get that sorted. I want to be organised this year! It's going to be a challenge as trying to overhaul my house (on the cheap), and want to start driving lessons (then will need a car) but I'm going to try and see what I can do!
    New forum. New sig. Yes I still need to lose 2 stone! :smiley:

    Hello Debtfree future and Missli

    and a big big welcome to the thread. Sue is our Leader and she gives you all your numbers which she will ask you to pop onto your signature. It also helps her a great deal if you could read the first posts as this explains everything and tells you when we open our pots. It's a good idea to subscribe to the thread you can do this at the top of the page then you won't lose us cos that would be awful :eek:

    Sparky is our Official Counter Upper and he loves it when we enter any amount we bank onto our signature as well . See they are easily pleased.

    Me and Jakes Mum look after Sue and Sparky and keep them sane (Though to be honest I worry about Sue :rotfl::rotfl:not to sure about Sparky either:rotfl::rotfl:)

    post on thread everything you do cos we are very[STRIKE]nosy[/STRIKE] interested in your lives.

    but most of all enjoy saving

    Its veeeeeeeeeeeeery easy to sell on FB Sue-UU, just pop your town name and the words selling page into the search bar to find a page set up for selling in your area, ask to join, add pictures of stuff you have for sale. If anyone wants it they will either comment on your picture or private message you, you arrange a day and time for them to come and collect it from you and then give them your address :D

    Best part is they pay you in CASH!! :j:j:j its my favourite way to sell as there are no fees, people view the items before they part with their cash so no returns, and as I spend most of my life in this house people can turn up whenever and the odd no show doesnt bother me ;)

    You do occasionally get people asking you to deliver and its up to you whether you can or if you want too, alot of people will say 'yes for a couple of quid toward fuel' I only drop off if they are in my town (its quite small) or im already going to where ever they live.

    Hi Jakes-Mum.....silly question, woops, forgot there's no such thing....what's FB? I thought people were using that as shorthand for FleaBay??
