    I just got £25 credited into my bank account by way of an apology and to compensate me for 3 phone calls from Santander (total F-wits that they are). Going to pop £10 of this into my pot once I draw it out and £15 towards my Argos store card. Yay. Cheers Santander, the calls only cost me £3.

    Hi everyone! Hope you're well!
    Sorry I haven't posted in a while but I've been working very hard and saving all my pennies! Am potting £10.33 tonight as I'm home for the night now.

    Have been keeping tabs on what I've been saving on an iPhone app so I know how far away from my goal I am! Over half way now!
    Hope you all had a fab weekend x

    Just popping on to say hey!

    Hope to be on here a bit more.

    I have moved houses over the weekend - in my own home at long last.

    Will be a little busy as nearly 39 weeks pregnant and need to get the baby stuff sorted but I will check in more often.

    £3.12p to the pot today :)

    Hope everyone is well
