    Hello and welcome to all the newcomers - isn't this going to be fabulous? My tin is ready and waiting for the first "clunk" to begin, its a really empty sound until you get a layer of coins on the bottom - ooh, excited already.....
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    I got so excited about saving I have already put some money in. As it's not a see-through container I'm going to struggle to keep track of the amount, but that doesn't really matter, cos it means I will have more than £365 at the end of the year and that has to be a good thing :)

    I'm the same, bought a sealed tin from B&M for 99p and popped a couple of quid in yesterday. Hopefully it will be a nice little bonus this time next year!:D

    Hi all, I've been inspired by ellieseleven to save money for next year so please could I be added to the list. I will definitely have to get a sealed tin as I have no will power otherwise and I will be hiding it from the rest of the family as a surprise next year.

    Good savings everyone.

    Hello there Chrysalis, I'm so glad that you have decided to join us! The £1's certainly do mount up through the year and it's a great feeling when you get to count up all those lovely coins;)

    Take care
