    Hmm there is only a month to go until the grand pot opening (if I've understood right). On the grounds that it's never too late, can I join?!
    Also, can I include survey vouchers in my total as I always save those for Christmas shopping?!

    You're quite right, Pink_Giraffe (see below), it's never too late to join us. 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.

    , you're welcome to include survey vouchers in your total, and IF you wish you can save until next year, though if you've been saving this year anyway then please join us all on the 27th November!! :D
    I'm hoping for a good amount to make a dent to one of my ongoing goals.

    Good luck in achieving exactly that, Trixxibell!! :D

    Great to see you, DeafLeopard, and know you're still saving well.

    It's going to be very busy around here in 5 weeks when everyone comes on to declare their totals. I'm so excited I can't wait.

    It'll be bedlam, Ruth, but....FANTASTIC!!!!! :j:j:j


    Well, I'm sure you'll have found the crochet thread/s by now, jakes-mum. All the best with getting that blanket done in time! BTW, I go with Lynsey, use a smaller (anything) pot to cover the last few weeks. :D


    Time to be sensible and put some cash on your CC, GettingOrganised, you'll be chuffed when you get it paid off. Go on, be a devil and make life easier!!! ;)


    I hope that DH's prescription arrives today for DH, Modesty. :(
    I may be a bit slow, Lynne, but what the devil's a YS salad???! :undecided

    DH suddenly interested in outdoor Christmas lights and has started sniffing around the money pot wondering if a share can be spent on lights. He NEEDS to do it for our two granddaughters (both under two). I think he just wants to play too

    If you can't afford them, findingmyfeet, make some lovely window displays. We do with angels, the 15" "Snowman" figures, and fairy lights all round around the front facing windows - looks beautiful even if I say so myself - and the DGK love it! AND get to help me! :j


    I can understand your thoughts about aiming so high, Lynsey, why not just go as high as you can and be happy with that rather than having a Target?! Whatever you do, be happy with it. PS. Just seen your latest post and fantastic news that you've reached your huge goal!!!!!!!!!happy066.gif (thanks for that Saver-upper)Time to sit back and relax...and start saving for 2015!!
