    A very warm welcome, Glitterbaby. It's lovely to have you with us. :grinheart Enjoy yourself saving, posting and joining in the banter. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 2nd post of 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: 26th 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.




    Glitterbaby, don't forget you can start saving immediately! :j

    I think I need to rethink how I do it next year as I am sure I could put more away....

    What happens about joining again next year? Does your number roll over or do we start again? Anyway as you can tell Sue-UU I am keen to join again starting on Friday for 2015

    Thanks for all the encouragement along the way. Know I don't update this thread but I am always lurking and smiling at how well everyone is doing.... xx

    It's great to see you, Magsnoodle, and wonderful to know you're enjoying the challenge so much! :j Re next year (or should that be...Friday (so close!!!)) you don't need to do a thing, I simply C&P every one across to the new thread. All you need to do is SAVE! :D Have a look at the 1st post again and see ways you can save even more. Budget well, reward yourself for jobs (put extra money in, even if it's only pennies) or penalise yourself for not having done something. You get the picture...any excuse or should that be reason! :dance: Keep enjoying your saving and always strive to do better, Mags, you KNOW you can! It might also pay to update on the thread as it's amazing what that can do. Best wishes!!

    Looking forward to the Total, 32b3! Getting so excited!!!! :j

    Why not, moohound, all the best for you having what you need!! :D

    Thanks a lot, mummytummy, and for ALL your help on the reminder threads. You're a gem and deserve a gold star. :staradmin


    That's brilliant saving, katsta1, especially as you put your Target to be £100! Congratulations to you!!!!!!! :j:T:j I reckon you should be ecstatic!!! :D

    Please ensure your correct Nos are on your siggies everyone!


    Have a fantastic weekend, Potters, the last before the 27th!! :j
    The tension builds now with a mere

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Morning all.

    Welcome to nore and more new potters. Good luck with your potting and a great time to join and ready for the next full challenge.
    It's not the words but the thoughts Sue-UU
    That's right Lynne. I wonder what Sue was thinking of?? ;)

    I wonder what Sue will think when I tell her where I'm going for lunch??

    Always stuffed at Richard's place. :rotfl:

    Keep saving over the final few days and make that total a BIG one.

    I've been potting the odd £2 coin and a few £1 coins ready to start off next years challenge.
    I'll be back in a few days time to add my total on the correct day.

    Have a great weekend.

    NB everyone!
    Unlike sparky I have not been able to take any banked amounts from your sigs, I'm trusting that you'll all be able to give me the entire sums you've saved when you declare on the 27th. Thanks a lot folks. :)

    32b3, that's simply amazing!!!!!! :dance: :T:dance: Isn't it just fantastic what can be saved rather than possibly frittered away! So thrilled for you. I know it's a bind having to go to the bank multiple times - worth it though eh?! ;) How about local shops? We usually go to the village PO/Store with ours and they're always glad of it.
