bellevie, you've made a great start with that £3! :j




You'll have to 'pull yer finger out' with those cards, Ruth! :eek:

That was a good save with free delivery, nanto3girls, brilliant.

I've updated my number now Sue-UU sorry I missed the post before (I'm not very observant I know lol!). I noticed that my target wasn't on there though, would it be possible to update it please? It's £350 for the christmas pot and £400 for the holiday pot. Thank you!!

That's fine, Happybeingme, they don't have to be done straight away, but the sooner the better is best by me and best for sparky's spreadsheet. Both Targets are on, all you have to do now is - go for it!! A great idea with the childrens' £2s.

Thank you everso, I have updated my sig and am all fired up ready to save, save, save. Well......... I would be but my car failed its MOT at the cost of £400. Thats about £330 more than we have in the bank so its going to be fun till payday!

Oh sams, that's really horrible, especially given the time of year. Chin up, at least it'll be roadworthy after it's done.

Time for a couple of early nights for you eh, getting-there-slowly, you want to be ok for Christmas and sound awful right now.

That's ok, nikki2002-2008, and well done with the money saved. Wise to keep some by you too.

Hi skilly and good potting.

I like the sound of that plop plop, AlwaysHappy, good saving.


PLEASE NOTE everyone: It's time to change your numbers now as they're all done and simply need swapping over. You'll see that 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. :grinheart 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.

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

Carpet was fitted today. Took out £130 to pay for it, total was £125 so £5 change was potted.

Went shopping and found 20p roadkill. Potted this too.

Going to the softplay tomorrow with the littlies so that £10 in my purse may be used :S. Half price entry though so not too bad! Change will be potted.

20p potted today. Nothing special, but better than nothing. I think this Christmas thing is getting in the way! :rotfl:

Another NSD today so a couple of £1 coins into the pot to celebrate ~ downhill from here though as still several outstanding spends to come for Christmas prep! However, I've set myself a tight budget and anything that comes in under it will go straight into the pot (and I guess towards next year by the time it's opened)!

Hope everyone's good!

Hi Sue, I'd like to join as a newcomer, can you add me please? I'm thinking of having a holding pot and will transfer money to a sealed pot regularly. Will put change from groceries and other shoppings, roadkills, any saved money by not spending - APART from £2 coins that I'm going to save in another jar As I also joined Frugal Living Challenge, I'm not going to spend money on a pot but will decorate and seal a glass coffee jar with Cath Kidston stickers or the decor tape I bought from Poundland.

61p for my pot today - change from lunch

Hi Sams247

The recipe is on page 16 of this PDF:

Hope it works - if it doesn't, google 'Panasonic cider apple bread'

Sue Christmass day will be fine :rotfl:
Cheers
