Hi all, I am a newbie too...and would also love to join the jamjar challenge. I have finally faced all debts and made a budget. Can't see where Xmas is going to enter into it at all...and with two beautiful little piggies to look after....got to do something for Xmas....so bring it on!

Just checked my purse...got 6p! - only £149.94 to go!!:rotfl:
Well every mountain starts with one step I suppose!!!!

I got a can of drink at work and had no change so I had to put a £2 coin in the machine (not very money saving I know ) it gave me my change £1.50 in 5ps :rotfl:So todays total went up to £2.42, giving me a running total of £35.70:T

Decided to empty out my purse - of EVERYTHING in coin form and put it in the jars. I'm off sick at the mo so if I have stuff in my purse I may be tempted to say to my OH "can you get me a mag?blah blah blah!!!"

So I usually use pounds and fifties for parking - whilst I am off - they are being saved or else they will get spend.

Its actually quite empowering.:T

£10 in one jar of £1's and 50p's.:rotfl:

Now up to £36.43 in 3 weeks. Not bad going for odd change. I do keep spending the pennies though - must start putting change into bottom of my bag instead of using up the odd bits..
