Thanks Mr CF for updating the spreadsheet and is lovely to see I have achieved 8.5% of my target already. Will be paying the next instalment early as I get paid 10 days early in December because of Christmas. January will be a long long month!


Glad you had a lovely holiday and congratulations on getting house offer accepted. Is it your first house purchase?

A massive thank you to everyone for the kind words regarding the holiday. It truly was great

I have spent an absolute fortune this month. With Xmas and the holiday it's like :eek:

Had my staff party last night. Great meal which I paid for months ago but I spent a little on drinks too. Came home with lots of change (coins) which I've out in my shiny new box which I bought on holiday. I might do month / week about for online transfers or physically putting a pound into a box. Why not mix things up a little

Really hope all my deliveries arrive this week. Need to get wrapping. :rotfl:

Hope the spreadsheet is working for everyone. If it isn't or you have problems accessing it, please PM me and il get it sorted.

Happy Sunday everyone. I'm resting all day

£1.10p safely in the pot where I can't get at it. Its lovely reading everyone's posts. I hope we all manage to keep going throughout the year. It'll be just fantastic to have Christmas already paid for when it comes around next year.

I'm going to try to finish my year in line with sealed pot challenge which happens to be the 5th November. I use a tablet as laptop is not happy at the moment so I will pm at the end of dec to declare and will do monthly here after.

The perils of not having a sealed pot. Last night we had to take a taxi out and back, unexpectedly. My husband didn't have enough cash on him so I raided the purse where I was/am saving my money. I had to part with a tenner but he assures me he will give it back, which I know he will. The point is though, now he knows about it so I will have to get myself down to the CU and pay it in regularly. I will, meanwhile, look out for or make a sealed tin/jar.

These things are sent to try us, lol.
