    Hi Sue and everyone else

    Member 210 here can you put me down for £150 this year please.

    Thanks
  • hello :)


    I am here, number 8,


    can you change my target to a hundred pounds please?


    I only take out 60 quid cash a week these days, 30 for petrol and 30 for food shop (single girl very cheap!) so I don't have much to put away in the pot.


    Still I always do it and I do like the extra bit of cash :)


    thank you for running the thread Sue XXX
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Hiya everyone, especially all the lovely new peoples :hello:


    Thanks for the kind words Sue-UU and glad I'm not the only one who 'pinches a penny'. BTW - I liked your version of what I was brought up to say which is 'Better than a slap round the face with a wet kipper' (don't ask as I don't know) :rotfl:


    Had a think or two and would like my total for

    Challenge 8 to be £1200 please.


    I am aiming high but it is meant to be a challenge and will make me try even more :T Also I am making plans ;)


    Just 20p 'found' on the bedroom floor. It wasn't on my side but it's in my pot now. DH shouldn't be so careless with his coins eh :)


    Hope you all having a super-duper Sunday

    I'm sorry to hear about your parents. I've been there. It's really hard just try not to stress yourself too much. Thinking of you :)

  • Back from a lovely weekend away with 5 £2 coins, so I am very happy to be putting those in my pot. Also found a £1 coin floating at the bottom of my overnight bag, so popped that in too.
