    I am trying to reduce my Coca Cola intake. If I half the amount I drink at Work thats basically a £1 per day saving so I hope to save £5 extra this week.

    Oh i like the sound of this idea.

    I don't normally post much on this board but i find everyone here so admirable.

    I am detoxing this month so also no diet coke/pepsi for me (just hubby).

    Would love to be able to stash a £5 a way a week and see what i could build it up to

    I have put on weight so should really go back to weightwatchers. However, if I am 5lb over my goal (which is likely) I have to pay £4.95.

    So, to save my fiver, I will not be going to weightwatchers this week! Instead I will plan my meals properly and do a bit of exercise.

    It can be whatever we want it to be! pi** take, inspiration, bit of a laugh or whatever! A thread is whatever the posters make it!

    Let us know though if you have saved a fiver.....:D

    Why is a person that handles your money called a broker?!:confused:
  • Well I nearly saved a fiver!! I had a scraggy looking piece of cloth that started life as a crisp fiver. Get paid on Monday and thought I was five pound ahead, then daughter produces a school letter she got on Friday - guess how much she needed!

    I saw some fab sandals that were £15 and managed to walk away, does that count? (that's 3 fivers lol)
