Oh dear, I don't know why but I thought this challenge started in January!!! Anyway I just read it again and put my first £6 in my tin, to give myself a head start. I can't work out how to get colours etc on this tablet so sorry it's not in red or bold but
No. 5. 6/366
I only need some batteries for my dgd 2 for the fairy house I've bought her and that's me done for Xmas shopping, this year my dds and me have decided only to buy for the children and its much better, instead we are all meeting up here between Xmas and new year for a tea that we all bring something to, so it's going to be very quiet for me this year, although I am going to youngest for Xmas dinner but then home here after as they are going out for tea!!! So I may even see the Queen on tv for the first time ever.

Hi Nanny Gladys,
We start on December 1st so we have the full 366 days to save;)
Don't worry about colours, I'm happy to just pick up your amounts whenever you post.
Sounds like you are organised for Christmas this year;)

Me too Triangle, this is the third year I have joined the challenge and it certainly does help towards Christmas and I just love seeing my tin get fuller as the year goes by.
Well done on the totals;)
