    "£6 odd added yesterday change from dentist and Chinese"

    Can't help thinking that sounds a slightly odd combination, Saver88! :D

    Ha ha, that's what I thought too!! :rotfl:

    Thank you for my lovely star Sue, my first of the new SPC year!! :happyhear I will try and pop on more frequently but tend to get nothing else done when I'm on here, :whistle: so have to give myself the occasional MSE detox lol!! :eek: :money: Not that I've had much time over the last couple of months anyway of course! :www: :shocked:

    Better get on with some more housework as I want to take DD out for a walk around Arundel later! Better get it done before the sunshine disappears again!! :j ;) Have a lovely day everyone, happy potting! I wonder if the ducks have dropped any roadkill?? :D
    Saving for Disney again, oops why book one Disney holiday when you can book two!

    Hi All,
    Have fantastic news. I passed my university module that I remained studying throughout my chemo. So chuffed with myself, because the last one I wrote the assignment whilst laid up in bed struggling with chemo symptoms. So today I have huge grin on my face. Next module starts in February :)


    I have potted some change today in my new sealed tin. Feeling excited at the new challenge, as the money for this one will be going towards a holiday booking at the end of next year. If that's not incentive to save, I don't know what is :)

    Happy Saturday everyone, we are having a pyjama day as we are all feeling a bit run down and in need of some rest. Ive got my bags of change ready to go to the bank from SPC6 so will do that this week hopefully.

    New pot has been started with odd bits of money surplus to the bagging up :)
    Really want to get to my £500 target at the end of the year!
