Sammy64 of course you can join in
Read the first post in this thread, Su will start a new thread just after midnight so post in that and will given a number to put in your sig (so Su can keep a track of who's potting)
Then you just need a nice pot or tin you aren't tempted to get into until opening day and away you go.

Hi all.

Some good amounts coming in and hopefully this year will be massive.
My wish has always been for this challenge to eventually top £100,00 and one day will.
Whatever you manage to save, it all helps, especially with Xmas coming up, if that was your main aim.

I'll declare #96 £700 for this years challenge and have actually put some money away to start off next years challenge.

Enjoy your savings and be proud.

A special thanks to Sue for all her effort.

SPC No. 73 = £248.66/£250

Happy with that, not quite as much as last year but that's because I've declared on the correct day

Afternoon lovely potters

My - what a day !! Sooo pleased you've all done so well :T
The excitement is jumping off the page :rotfl:

My op seems to have gone okay so far, fingers xd, though still a bit achy, itchy, blurry and dazzled. Apparently takes four weeks of eye drops to settle down completely.

Having used the abacus I'm happy to declare

SPC 130
£1470 saved in the pot and another £3146.41 made on the 'make £10 a day' thread over the twelve months.

So grand total of £4616.64 :T :dance: :T

'See' you all on the new thread :hello:
Lx

GOOD GRACIOUS ME, Lynne...or words to that effect!!!!!!! :eek: What an absolutely astonishing amount you've saved via SPC and other threads on MSE, the Total sum is incredible!!!!!! Many congratulations Lynne, you've done yourself proud for certain!!!!! :j:T:j I felt stunned with jakes-mum's but I'm nigh on gob-smacked now!!! :shocked::shocked: I'm also so happy for you that your operation went so well and that the eyes are relatively ok. I've thought of you so much today...wondering if you'd be able to see your cash!!!!! :rotfl::rotfl: Keep using the drops and all will be well. Believe it or not when my DH's ear is infected....he has to use ear drops! They work a treat. Be careful not to rub your eyes!


Gold star awards go to mrs-moneypenny and Lynne for lovely welcomes to our most recent family members. Thank you girls. :staradmin:staradmin


Another amazing POT Total from you, Lynsey!!!!!! Brilliant regular saving nets great rewards and you'v got just that!! Congratulations to you and have a lovely Christmas with it!! :dance::T:dance:

An excellent sum, lemonpopsicle!!!!! :j:T:j So close to your Target too, though like you say, it would have been more....IF you'd been as late as last year!!! Take note of next year's Declaration Date which is Thursday 2nd November!

How right you are, horseygirl, it's amazing how we save so much without even missing it!! Congratulations on doing so very well indeed!!!!! :dance::T:dance: What a day!
