Saving for Xmas 2015! A pound a day :-)

£1 coin into the almost empty pot (that's £2 in there now). I'm going to try and put only £1 coins into my terramundi because then when I break into it next December it will be like opening a crock of gold.

Well £31 added to the ISA for me today so off the starting blocks too
Did add coins to the pot earlier as I had a few and wanted to resist the temptation of spending so in the pot to safety they went :rotfl:

Well done potters it seems we are off to a flying start :T:T:T

Now I'm off to go and tackle this spread sheet ......:eek:

MrCrimeFiction - just looked at the spreadsheet! VERY pro . Submitted my update too. Thanks so much for all this hard work and keeping us motivated. No mean feat.

Thanks ever so much. I was delighted to see so many people pop in today to start. Thank you once again for making our lovely new guests feel welcome.

No problem at all. You and AlwaysHappy are the only ones who have had trouble :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. If you PM me your google account email address and il add it to the access sheet so you can get on. I did get your update sheet and I've added your total onto the spreadsheet.

Well done to everyone who has started on their Christmas savings pot. I have put in my £7 for the first week in December and will be putting it in my glass jar weekly as I draw out cash and try to make it last to help with budgeting. Sometimes works and sometimes not :rotfl:


If it is ok with you Mrcrimefiction I will be sending in my form at the end of each month. Happy saving!

Morning all! Another £ into the tin this morning - a lovely shiny one - simple pleasures eh? I will just do the sheet at the end of the month but being accountable daily helps me. Day 2 of the journey..... :j

...and another £1 from me.

I will update the spreadsheet on a monthly basis to keep things simple.

Same here, monthly updates would probably be easier MrCF. But I've transferred my second pound over today.

Just put £1 in tin, so that's £2 in so far. Will put an update in my signature.

Another £1 in the pot. I too will update at the end of every month to keep things simple but I'm hoping that posting on here every day will help keep me motivated. I'm enjoying reading all your ideas and tips.
