    OOH, I didn't realise that you could include other totals - should I have included the £365 from the £ a day pot. Silly me :(

    Indeed you can, AlwaysHappy, we had an in-depth conversation about 3 or 4 years ago and as it's not really put down (so I'm told) anywhere else on MSE it can definitely be included on 7 just as you did with your pot savings.

    Blooming heck Sparky! That's a total and a half :eek: I'm moving up near him! They must all have holes in their pockets! :rotfl:

    Big hugs to Sparkys wife, hopefully some answers for her soon :(

    Now I'm sure I owe my pot some money as I had 8p off a litre on my fuel and had 42 litres, but DS has gone off in camp and nicked all my change :eek: will get it potted as soon as I've been to the bank, have also got £30 cash back from my energy switch and £20.93 from quidco :j :j so will get that as well :D

  • :wave: Good evening, I have been reading and lurking on and off over the last year, and would love to join in please as I would love to have some money to spend at Christmas next year instead of trying to scrape together enough to spend on a few goodies and presents.

    I have already been saving some £2 and 20ps lately and am starting my pot with £32.11, so I hope to be able to keep this up.

    I would like to say a big well done to everyone for their fabulous totals this year its a huge inspiration to me that it can be done.:)
