Wow, loads of new joiners since I last posted. Hello to everyone
Going to be such a nice amount saved up for next year between us all.
Just waiting for payday to transfer my next £31. Have spent the last of this years budget yesterday, plus still spent some money I hadn't budgeted for and have finally finished spending now so will feel awesome having a nice pot full of dosh that is just for Christmas and not have to use my own money as an extra top-up.[FONT="][FONT="][FONT="][FONT="][FONT="][FONT="]D[FONT="]ebt free since May 2015[/FONT][/FONT][/FONT][/FONT][/FONT][/FONT][/FONT][FONT="][FONT="][/FONT][/FONT]0 -

Today has been a bit depressing. I've been shopping and the shops are full of really lovely things I would like to buy for Christmas but I just can't afford them. Of course the sensible side of me says i dont need to buy so much but next year will be different and I am more than happy to put todays £1.10 in the pot.0
