  • Hallo, can I join?

    I've already been doing this unofficially and on the sidelines for a year anyway. The money I save goes towards our holiday spends, so I will probably declare round about August time.

    Thanks

    A very warm welcome, TriBadger, pantherchick, princess-angelica and CapricornLass. It's lovely to have you with us. :grinheart Enjoy yourself saving, posting and joining in the banter. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 1st post of page 1. Please read through post 1 as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge. PS. We always empty our pots and declare our savings near the end of November, please make a note of this year's date: 27th Nov.
    Please also subscribe to the thread by clicking on "Thread Tools" (lower green bar) and clicking "Subscribe to this thread"...or you may lose us! To put your SPC No on, go to "Quick Links" (right side of top green bar), click and then click on "Edit Signature" and you're away. ;)

    *Please pop your numbers on your sigs, it really helps.


    TriBadger, any questions you wish to ask then please do so
    pantherchick, I put the £250 as your Target, if that wasn't what you wanted then please just say.

    princess-angelica, Targets are entirely up to members, and the majority choose not to bother and just wait to see how much they get the first time around.

    CapricornLass, a good idea to save for your holiday. However, please add what you save to your signature so we know.

    Gold stars go to, 32b3 :staradmin, little_sweetie :staradmin and Meowhouse :staradmin for very good welcomes.



    So, we wait with baited breath,
    Richy23......

    You chose well,
    bellevie, always start at the top and work down. Fingers crossed for some e!ay goods.

    Brilliant potting,
    Meowhouse! By golly you did do well. :j Now eating Christmas pudding (J'adore :drool:) all in the name of reducing your food waste??! :p Poppycock.

    Here's to that £5er,
    Cauliflower!

    Excellent news,
    AlwaysHappy! We always seek to help folk save, but to transform them is usually a bloomin miracle! I'm thinking of just 2 people here (yes, you guessed correctly) when I admit it would take a lifetime to do so! :rotfl::rotfl: Well done with the oven gloves.

    I haven't got a leather suite, nanto3girls, but you're certainly welcome to flit around here with duster and polish. Heck, I'll even take the decorations and tree down for you. :dance:

    Ah! Now, here's our fishcakes to even do the ironing for me. :rotfl: Even more £2ers then, fishcakes. :j

    Flippin eck, 32b3, I'm feeling dizzy with all these next year's Christmas, Mothers' Day, Birthday presents...wrapped 'n all for Pete's sake! _pale_Where is your head girl?!!! I won't tell you what DH has just said, but it wasn't complimentary! :rotfl:

    Good potting, tokicat. :D

    Behave yourself, Caz! I know one type and she ain't talking about them! :T I'm away from this madhouse!

    PLEASE NOTE everyone: It's time to change your numbers! You'll see there are LOADS less names and numbers now, but it's useless having folk on the list that no longer save with us. However, if old members return then you'll be made very welcome and can still have your name added and be given a new number. :D Please change numbers ASAP folks.

    If you've already updated your No, please could you kindly make sure it's correct as I made a blunder to start with!

    Very many thanks indeed.
    Sue x

    Anyone wishing to join, please just ask, you're more than welcome, it's NEVER too late. There may be a lot of us, but don't be shy, we're a lovely lot, so come on in. :grinheart
