#054 target is £50
Nothing to pot yet though.NSD 3/25 | SA: £38.00 | EF: 38.130 -
Hello Sue
Please can I keep my target at £575 for the coming year - I am going to go all out to achieve it this year - my shortfall amounts to about £9.00 a month so I am sure I can find that throughout the year.
Sorry I don't get to post much through the year but I am always with fellow SPC'ers in spirit and love checking in at counting time to see how everyone has done.
Hope you all have a lovely Christmas and succesful SPC in 2015!:)0 -
Hello all. Oooo it's all nice and shiny and clean around here
I think this new home of ours will do just nicely for another year
Me and the OH wen't shopping last night. He gave to £30 towards the bill so that has gone into the pot! It is filling up nicely.
I haven't found anything in the black friday sales to spend some money on. At this rate it i'll take OH out then the rest will go on my CC and Christmas!!!Sealed Pot Challenge member #071 VSP #4

Afternoon all and a brand new shiny thread.
Welcome to more new potters - good luck to your savings.
Good luck to all potters and hope we can all do well in 2015.
I was going to set a target of £500 this time, as that's how much I need for Xmas 2015. But, I want some money for myself for my efforts. lol
So, my target is £600 - I'll only be saving £2 and £1 coins this time - make counting easy!!
I've started my pot off with 4 x £2 coins and 28 x £1 coins = £36 potted.
I'll also be keeping a count as I go along.

Thank you for the new thread Sue.
I'm really looking forward to saving this year and feel that even without saving for DSes school trip, the various repairs to the car and the months of being house bound I would have exceeded my total by at least £100.
This year I'm aiming to double hit it, I'm putting £10 a week into my savings account and also £1 a day into one of my pots and all coinage 20p and under into another. Now just to persuade DS that he really wants to come with me to buy new pots as I've lost the ones I'd bought!SPC #329 £471/£500 banked

Hi timesrunnigout, it's lovely to see you back. Pleased to hear you too are happy with the 5th Nov, but could you please cange your No as it's now 439!
Sorry about that, but I had to change the entire membership list last year as so many people no longer come to MSE (became millionaires no doubt!). So, if you could kindly pop the number above on your siggy and remove the old one I'd be grateful.
