'Save the Change' has been available for quite a while now.

I really wish Barclays or Halifax would start this!! I think it's an amazing idea. I have been envious of lloyds people for years, although not enough to switch lol. I'm a barclays girl, only with halifax as well for the £5 a month free haha

Ive bought a few bits in the sale for my pressie cupboard but given it a lot of extra thought this year instead of throwing it all in the bag just coz its reduced

Still adding £10 to the pot (£90) 4 out of 5 days no parking fees

Morning Everyone.....


Thank You ALL for your encouragement and support....I just had a rough couple of days but I hope this Weekend will be better (although I'm working from home for most of it)....


The dream was just a dream but it just shook me up and shell-shocked me for a little while....It was good to get to my Placement and focus on my Clients for a little while yesterday....


Anyway...I'm back and (trying to be) raring to go...


Dobbibill - Thank you so much for your encouragement hun, you're always there giving support for everyone and I think that's lovely...


sophieo16 - It's great to work out your Percentage....It can really keep you motivated.....And thank you for your encouragement hun, much appreciated


patman99 - Hmmmm, I would always use the Speckled Hen Bottle as a Terramundi of sorts...but that's possibly because I don't tend to drink water I'm sure you will put it to great use...


LittleMissDetermined - Nothing wrong with being a little mad, aren't we all? Thank you for your lovely thoughts...


stewby - It's okay, ramble as much as you want hun....I think it's necessary to feel at home in somewhere that you're going to be long-term so I understand the need to get out and find somewhere else...hope you find somewhere soon!!


carbootcrazy - Thank you for all your encouragement to everyone....You're so lovely...thank you


x_raphael_xx - I've Updated the First Page...Keep it going...You're doing AWESOME!!


crimson.addict - I agree with you hun, I think the Save the Change is great....although probably not for me as I am really OCD about my Account and hate having odd amounts in there but I do it myself as I'll get confused otherwise...LoL


skye blue - I'm okay thanks hun....thank you for your lovely thoughts.....You mentioned putting money into your Pot...I wasn't sure whether that meant the Emergency Fund or not...could I check what your Overall Total is if you've put money into your EF? Thanks hun


crazy_cat_lady - I'm okay thanks hun...I appreciate the lovely thoughts...I hope you are well too


Right...I think that's everyone replied to...I'm sorry if I've missed anyone out!!


I think we should all try to look at the Positives for this Weekend....I'm going to try and find just one positive this Weekend and let that make me feel good xXx

Hi Helen and all fellow 3-6ers, hope you're all doing ok

Circumstances at home changed for me just before Christmas and money is now much tighter but I'm still plugging away at topping up the EF though progress will be a lot slower, new balance now £1410.

Love to all xx

Sorry to hear of your change in circumstance, hope it can improve soon.

Doesn't matter how long it takes, it's making the effort and saving instead of spending that counts. We will all get there in the end xx

Keep going [Deleted User], taking smaller steps and refusing to give up on the EF is testament of your determination. Like LMD, I too hope it improves soon for you :grouphug: We are all behind you

LMD well done on sorting out your naughty word :rotfl: :rotfl: it's good to have a good clear out now and then.

Happy Sunday everyone
