I Potted some change yesterday and today....I think it adds up to about a fiver....
I've got to ramp this up so that I'm saving more each Week otherwise I'm never going to get there....
But I AM proud of how much I've saved so far....even though I don't know exactly how much that is...
Glad to hear that your ear popped Jakes Mum...I know just how good that feels!!
*Hugs* to those that need them xXx0 -

Evening all - some money to pot at last - its been poor pickings!! £20.90 tonight though so feel like I'm back in the game. Have started to panic that I wont be able to open my tins (they need a can opener) and I'm not very good with can opening at the best of times - really hope the tins have a good lip on them.I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!0

Nothing to pot for days now, not spent since Saturday, filtering a bit at a time into the ISA though, I wish I was brave enough just to put a big chunk in at the beginning of the month, but I keep thinking 'I might need something' when I don't really NEED much at all.
On target to have £1000 by then end of the month and that will be a real milestone for me, especially as I was £39000 underwater not that long ago.
Hope everyone is well and potting away merrily
