Evening everyone.
Well I banked £55 earlier this year, and have just tweezered (is that a word) another £48 from my terramundi.So I didn't have to smash it.
So declaring £103 I also have a whole load of coppers in a box, but I'm not counting them, I really can't be bothered. They can go towards next years pot.
We're not opening little mans pot yet either. We agreed to open it when it was full. We're only potting £2 coins in it.
New target for next year of £120 please.
Thanks to Sue and sparky for keeping the thread going and to everyone else for your contributions to the thread through the year, it has def motivated me to try harder, although I drop on to SMP for three months, then no pay for three months!so will struggle a little.

Really pleased that I have managed to save so much from change!! :T
I had 31p left in change after bagging up which I put in to my new tin. I opened my tin a few weeks early as I needed the cash to buy Christmas presents with, but wanted to wait until today to declare it with you all. Without the money I would have been really stuck!!
Thanks for all your hard work and encouragement!!Saving for Disney again, oops why book one Disney holiday when you can book two!:starmod: Emergency Fund Savings - #148 - £10/£1000 1% :starmod::xmastree:#083 SPC6 £63 - SPC7 £90 - SPC8 £63 - SPC9 £54 - SPC10 £26 - SPC12 £70 :xmastree:0 -

Are you impressed Sue, 65p potted tonight. I am trying really hard lol. x
Need to get a new pot asap. I bought a £1 only tin that holds £60 of £1 coins from the card factory the other day. It was only 99p so a bargain I thought. You can also re-use it.

Thank you

It's ok, Thrifty Fashionista, no one needs to rejoin or do anything at all, except switch threads which is so easy anyway. I transfer all of you across so no one will get forgotten........
.........though maybe I should think twice in the case of Saver-upper who just maybe trying to say something to me :undecided
Don't worry, Saver-upper, I hear you, you're just a tad excited, but maybe you could stay here and man this one while we all flee?!
You won't have a clue about those pots and what's in them unless you mark them underneath - I have to!
Ah, there you are, ETO, I thought you'd be coming today. Brilliant saving it really is!!!! :T I realise your little treasure's pot is staying until it's full and I don't blame you. Stay motivated whatever happens, you never know how fortunes may change so keep strong, budgeting and saving! :j
Hi mossy! Good to see you back. I'm so happy for you that you're so, so delighted with your savings, you've done brilliantly given that you've had a topsy turvy year too. :T :j I hope you're settled now, happy too of course - and that we see you more often!
Am I impressed, mumof3plusoh? I am stunned, but soooo incredibly excited at all the pleasure that's coming from this thread, from lovely people doing their levels best to save and no matter how much they've managed, they are ecstatic about it - that does my heart a power of good and that's why I adore SPC! Got more than you bargained for there eh! It's good to hear you've started up, well done!!
Many congratulations, ladsmadd!!!!! :T Excellent work by you too with a very good year as a result!! :j It's so good to see you make an appearance...a bit more often maybe?!BTW, your Target is on and I really hope you get it.
So sorry to be so late, folks, I'm (of all nights) having huge internet problems, so please bear with me, which I know you will. It's ok, hubby turned everything off then back on again - and all's well, I'm hoping!
Please everyone, do give me chance to get all FIVE posts before I give you the go ahead with the 6th. I'll be quick to put that one on after the 5, promise.Please, everyone, check that you have your Nos on your signatures. Many thanks.Sue x

Hi Jo, I see you've had a good day saving, well done.
Be careful not to spend too much tomorrow in an attempt to get change!
Not nagging (as if!), honest. I've altered your Target to £120, but it can always be adjusted according to how you go, just say the word.
Thanks Sue!
Please nag me I will need that tomorrow as I am like a magpie and attracted to shiny things!
