Your signature bubbs, is it just a case of putting money away in a pot every week and (try) not to open it for the year??
Thanks sorry we then went out.
Glad you enjoyed your beef:D
Yes there is a thread sealed pot challenge you go there and ask for a number, then everyone opens more or less the same time and there is a big count up of how much everyone has saved.
I buy one of those pots you cant open.

Could some kind soul please take pity on me and explain the Boots 75% sale to me. Never really bothered with Boots before last year, but have a few points I'd like to spend
Is it in store only? Is just the remaining Christmas overstock? How much advance notice do you get of the day?

Are you Irish by any chance princessmelody? My Irish MIL is the only other person I have ever heard use the term Little Christmas and she is taking her decorations down today. We did ours yesterday.0

Hi pasipha
The boots 75% sale is all the Christmas stock that's left over . Gift sets, smelliest,cards, wrap, toys (if your lucky) etc. They never give any notice of when it is but it's normally on the 3rd Wednesday in jan.
The best plan of action is to go to your nearest the Tuesday before have a look at what they have left and where everything is. If you want to be cheeky squirrel away a few bits that you like.
Then go the next morning and buy buy buyx
Life is not about learning to avoid the storms - it's about learning to dance in the rain.0 -
