Right girls.
Slight change of plans! We're not going to New York now we're going to Butlin's Skegness! Do you still want to come? I can just imagine it now walking down the promenade in January with a bracing wind and a carton of fish & chips then pop into the pub for a quick pint! Sounds idyllic doesn't it?

OOOh Nothing nicer than chippy out of the paper in the rain along the promenade with the rain pouring down and the wind blowing you over!!

Oh so much better than NY and cheaper too!!!

Bet we could fill butlins !!

Hi Sue

Glad to have you back :T:T:T

Me, Jakes-mum Rosy and LindyLou are all going to NY with SPARKY :T:T:T I'm sure a few more will come with us.

It's funny though SPARKY hasn't been seen since I suggested we all went with him, but don't worry I expect he is searching the streets for our spending money!!!

Hope you are coming wouldn't it be fun !!!

Thanks so much, LC 2, it's good to be back with so many friendly folk. Despite sparky's protests I'm sure he would love to have us all with him, any time he says anything to the contrary, think of Shakespeare and "the lady doth protest too much"!

All the best with your next goal, Lynsey.

You put all you need to put into your 'holding pot', Nell, I'm sure you'll soon know if you don't need to keep it by any longer. At least it's safe til then.

I walked to Morrisons (which is easily 2 miles from where I work, mostly uphill!) after work...I'm really trying to get fitter and avoid the temptation of getting the bus!

A terrific way of saving, dinglefoot, and getting fit as well - who could possibly argue with that, keep it up and save well.

Ah, I see you've changed your mind then, sparky, (fibbing hound!), no worries though as I'd sooner have Skeggy anyday! :rotfl:

Have a lovely Wednesday, folks, and keep right in saving!!

Hi Guys,
Just want to say hi to you all,
Saving pennies and 5p's has been with me since i was little.. i have a bottle i have used all my life.
this tho is different so i will find a decent receptiacle later and start from today to save for my wedding!!!

Hubby to be is going to put his spare in too we could do with about 2K

there is hoping!!!

tarotangel

Thanks for the lovely welcome. I think my pot will be going towards the 'C' word although Skegness sounds tempting, never been. Being a Shetland lass would probably do a critique on the fish and chips.

Today met with a friend for her birthday, because I have health issues and she has a family and works shifts we don't often see each other so today was lovely.

System

Have potted £4.15 tonight yay me

Welcome to the newbies. :hello:

Found 5p whilst cleaning out the sandpit at school today...result!!

Still no wallet....I don't like it!! :eek: So apart from my sandpit tidying find there's not been much potting but I was able to put another £405 in to the house fees savings. :dance: We've made appointments to see a financial advisor and our bank next week about mortgages. Definitely something to look forward to as had some sad family news on Monday.

Another £1 potted over £6 in there now!
Just traded a £1 coin for £1 in change as my partner is only saving his £1 coins in a saving pot.we're on our way to saving for a house. Yes,a house -.-
