    Yippee! another £15 banked less than a pound to go before my first target (OH's Leatherman!) as my sig line has me at £124.06 :j Not only that but I am nearly at my Whisky Bottle challenge level!

    Hmm wonder how long it will take me to save £3,000 for the trip to Japan!

  • Now up to over £17 in change saved! Woo hoo! Not bad for about a month of saving the pennies. Hopefully I'll get to £75 (or as near as) by Xmas - combine that with my Quidco, and that should be about £100 for December!
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!
  • My total is now up to £94.66:D

    Okay I've saved another £2.06 this week - this is rather quite addictive. I'll definitely carry on doing this once I've spent what I'm saving now on Xmas.

  • £20 in small change ready to be banked - not bad for a month!

    Do banks still need these submitted in their own bags? Or do they just pour it into a machine these days? (Long time since I've saved pennies)

    Well done on the £20.00! It still needs to be bagged I'm afraid coppers in £1.00 (and you can't mix coins so no tuppences in with pennies! etc), 5p & 10p in £5.00s not sure about 20ps
