  • I joined last year along with the 20p one and didn't save anything, that will definitely change this year, it has to.

  • Hi,


    Please can I be added to the list? I already save 50p's in a tin but it would be great to join in with some challenges instead of going it alone!

    Well, I'm up and running with 2 in my pot

    I wanted a pot that I couldn't open and dip into and had seen metal tins in Pound shop. There was a dented one I found (and as I'm going to trash it on opening it doesn't matter) and haggled and got it for 25p :D

    As a side, I can't see my name on the list for a number :(

  • Hello Challengers Old and New :)


    Only been back at work a week and it has already cut into my MSE time, that plus a huffy laptop, I have been rather neglecting my responsibilities as organiser for the thread!


    As laptop is dangerously close to overheating I had best go, I need to declutter this afternoon and get on with being more organised.


    I will be back later on in the weekend, if anyone else wants me to put up a target, let me know and PLEASE let me know if I have left you off the list. That would be really embarrassing.


    have a lovely weekend folks XXX
    Nevertheless she persisted.
  • Can I join in please? Started my sealed 50p pot NYD, not really got a total in mind, just plodding along until my pot is full. Currently stands at £2.50 but having a day out tomorrow so will see if I can build it up a bit after a day of charity shopping.

  • I don't know if nsd are a good idea or not....I'm not spending much money and all shopping now put on my food budget account so I've only managed to add 1 more this week. Thinking of drawing a weekly food allowance out the bank just so I can save some more! Total £33-50

  • 2 more for me today, both received in change when shopping and stashed straight into my pocket rather than going back into my purse with the rest of it.
