    Ok, so DH and I have cracked as tomorrow will be a busy day.... The total potted over various different challenges & pots - virtual and otherwise - is:

    £975.71

    I just can't believe it! :T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T

    Thanks SO much to Sue-UU for keeping me on track. Some of the money goes towards a subscription, DH is claiming a chunk of it for a new phone and the rest will go towards Christmas (and any left over will be spent on a treat.).

    Looking forward to hearing about what others have saved! :j :j :j :j

    I'm still holding out Sue!!! I've had to stay away from the thread today or I would have cracked :(, DH has been walking round behind me all afternoon singing 'lets open the pots now, lets open the pots now' :eek: he's the one who's supposed to be STOPPING ME! :mad:

    13 HOURS TO GOOOOOO (. . . for me, because my horrible dietitian says I have to have breakfast first thing, everyday, before I do anything :( doesn't she understand its pot opening day?!?!?!)

    Another £1.35 in the pot this evening, which I think might be my last pottage unless I can sneak the change from the £5er DH gave DS for cadets today . . :think: might have to tackle DS to the floor when he gets in before DH has a chance to ask for it back :D
