    It's NEVER too late to join us, blueneleh. A very warm welcome to you. :grinheart Have fun saving, posting and enjoying the banter. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 1of page 1. Please read through post 1 as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge. PS. We always empty our pots and declare our savings near the end of November, please make a note of this year's date: 27th Nov.

    Please also subscribe to the thread by clicking on "Thread Tools" (lower green bar) and clicking "Subscribe to this thread"...or you may lose us! To put your SPC No on, go to "Quick Links" (right side of top green bar), click and then click on "Edit Signature" and you're away. ;)


    *Please pop your numbers on your sigs, it really helps.

    A gold star, Lynsey, and thanks for that initial welcome, though....don't forget the crucial 1st post on Page 1 bit, thanks a lot. :staradmin ;)

    Thanks for that, I did read the first post but couldn't see anything about repaid lending and didn't want to assume everything I pot could be counted.

    Many apologies, savingdad, I shouldn't make assumptions :o and you're right, I've put nothing about repaid lending - though in fairness that's classed as your money - so you save it by all means! :D

    By the way, savingdad and blueneleh, if you'd rather save on through to next October then please do so, if not we will see you on the 27th next month when you declare with the others.

    Shopping all done and £10 in the pot making friends with the others. :D
    Sue x


    Anyone wishing to join, it's NEVER too late, so please just ask, you're more than welcome. :grinheart

    Oh no, my pot needs emptying this year, as mentioned most of my pot money comes from being the lender of choice to tide friends and family over so I need to empty this year for sure.
    I'm looking for ways to find a bit more to pay off my last remaining debt which is my mortgage so anything that will bring the balance down before statement day is going to be counted lol
