    Excellently saved, savings my hobby!! A lovely amount to do something with at this time of year!! :D Congratulations to you and keep up the great work!!!!! :dance::T:dance:

    Hello there nannygladys! To my mind it's your last 2 words that sum up what SPC is about as it's what your savings means to you, the individual!! Yes, we probably have quite a few members with well paid jobs, but we've also got those who are between jobs and scraping by, imagine the differene between those 2 grades!!:shocked: It's not a competition and if it makes YOU happy then....it makes me thrilled to bits!! :D Enjoy it and be so proud!! :grinheartMany congratulations Nannyg!!!!! :j:T:j

    Hi Eljhem and many congratulations to you also!!!!! :dance::T:dance: It certainly makes sense to put the odd £8 into your savings for SPC 10!! You've done a fantastic job, all the best for the next time round! :D

    Many thanks for your help, Saver-upper! FP found her way over and is signed upthanks to you.

    I'm going to have to declare zero due to losing track after some challenging circumstances in September & having to use all my savings in various places/challenges. All I can say is that having the extra money at that time came in extremely useful - see you all on challenge 10 xxx

    HB,

    Just think of where you would have been without the money you had in various challenges, a zero figure, is okay as you spent what you had saved, so I would say you still managed to save even if it didn't survive the challenge end...

    You did what you had to do as the situation arrises, just remember you are in a better position then you would have been if you had nothing saved in those challenges, its not really a zero figure, just that you have not got any left, not that you haven't saved anything..
