    Ok its that time again for the weekly update, if everyone could just let me know what there grand total is this week, the way I will do it is on the first page I will keep the amount your had last week and then next to it I will put what your total is this week and I will do that each week.

    Just saves a lot of time as a lot more people than I thought joined the Challenge!!

    To save some of my PM space, you can post your total on the board.

    Jaxx

    Hope everyone has had a sucessful week.

    I've been away and missed this but as I emptied my coin bank yesterday it's be a good time to start. I'm aiming for whiskey bottle. Does it make any difference that I'm using one of those can banks so can't open it until full? Probably means I can't update every week but when dad's coffee is finished I'll swap over.
