    Thank you for keeping the challenge running - I don't post much but I do try keep to my little plan of parking savings.
    I go to an office twice a week where I have to pay for parking and each time I do I put the equivalent in my SPC account.
    I don't save change because I need it for the parking meter!

    Cheers everyone!

  • Hi
    I have been following this thread and have been waiting patiently for people to open their jars etc on the 5th Nov. I was watching to see how much they had. Very well done all.

    Please can I join now for next Nov. I would like to aim for £500.
    Then there will be no stresses at Xmas for me :j

    Was owed some money and repaid today so in the pot it went.
  • Hello, I would like to join if it's OK and not too late, still to find a jar, (going into town on Saturday) but have been putting coins aside ready for the new pot.

    Holding pot will have to cough up £1 for Small's non-school uniform day in aid of Children in Need tomorrow, but happy to give to a worthy cause. Watching Tom Jones this evening with Bob Brydon doing a music fundraiser (glass of wine in hand) :)
