MrsBigDog

Hi, I would love to join please? I've forgotten my username and password so had to re-register. I also do Park vouchers too, so will keep a running total of those along with save £1 a day. I really must start saving for next Christmas as this year has seriously crept up on me! MrsBD :j

Thanks for the number MrCrimeFiction. I have a few tins that may do for this challenge that have been sitting in the cupboard for a while so I will look them out and see what I think.

Hi there, thanks for offering to run this challenge. May I please join in? I had to raid the pot a few times this year but I'm hoping to manage the full £365 this time!

I've got a pink cupcakes sealed tin from the pound shop. It's got a dent in it though from being trapped in the bus doors!

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME

Lovely to meet you :wave:,please sit down and have a little read of what I think is going to be an amazing and beneficial challenge for all :rotfl:

This is the "Saving for Xmas 2015! A pound a day :-)" challenge

The aim: To save £1 a day from 1st December 2014, whether it be a £1 coin into a jar or moving it across in an online saver, it really doesn't matter . We will then open the jar or have access to the online account on 1st December 2015 and spend spend spend for all our loved ones Xmas presents.

I will be using my phone banking app and transferring over £1 everyday into my ISA. This way I can watch it grow and see that I'm physically saving. This way, if I have an emergency or am in dire need of money, I have quick access to it.

This thread is the new and improved "2014 - £365 in 365 days!" thread. Lots of people did fantastic on it throughout the year which is why it's back for population demand.

£365 is a fair chunk of change for Xmas shopping and I already have an idea what I'm going to spend it on. Think about it people, this could actually be the year you can surprise your kids / partner with a fantastic present :dance:

Get your names on the list people, this is going to be a busy and exciting road ahead

Hello - can I join this merry little gang. Going to see the nice lady at Ll*yds for her to have a chat with me about what she can sell me - no sorry how they can improve my banking experience. My plan is for her to open up one of their new better savings accounts that they have and this is where I will save my £1 a day along with my Christmas savings.

Good luck to everyone.... x
