  • WOW AlwaysHappy can't believe that's really all that we have left to go - isn't it amazing how it grows from that one single coin :T:T:T

    I have already decided that for next year I am going to definitely repeat the challenge but this time I am going to do £1 in a jar just like this year ( I still so love to hear that thud - it's not been a clunk for a long time has it;)) and also a virtual savings into my ISA directly on payday as after the first couple of months it will just become a habit and this will build up to stay in my savings for a very rainy day rather than the CC getting a flex!

    Well I have added six of the lovelies this evening so I am hoping to be back up to date for the end of the weekend....

  • well done Meowhouse - at least you are doing your best - it will all be lovely even if you don't get caught up fully (but I'm sure you will)

  • From Tuesday I'm starting over again for treats for myself in the Christmas sales. ATM I have £300 in my tin, and I have most of my Christmas stuff bought, so that £300 will be buying the rest of the gifts I have and pay out what I owe for some gifts that I owe for :)

    This thread and challenge has be great for me. I can't believe I did it and that this early I have used this money for my Christmas gifts! I'm delighted. So Thank You to EVERYONE on this thread and to the OP who started it up. I do hope we have one for 2015!!!

    So as from Wednesday, my £1's will be going towards treats for me in the Christmas sales :D:T :j

    My savings so far has reached £307, but I should confess that's after taking out £250 to buy a GoPro (needs must) ;).

  • Few more £s added for me tonight so nearly caught up - it's just getting the change to be able to pot it that's sometimes the difficulty

    Another £1 added but recently I have started to add more than £1 a day. I don't know exactly how much is in my tin now but anything over £365 is a bonus (trying for £500:))

    This has been a great challenge and I'm so pleased that I joined in with you all - Christmas is sorted for us and there is no need to worry about buying food or presents...thank you!!
