    Sorry just realised I put £32 in last month so now have £63.
    I am saving lots of change as well so it will be a nice surprise in December.
    Thanks Ellie.

  • 2 shiny £2 coins straight in the pot. I will hopefully have a bigger than £366 surprise come December.
  • Put my Feb money in the pot and made up my shortfall from starting late i now have a lovely £91 in my envelope there's something very satisfying seeing it in its envelope.

  • Morning everyone,

    Sorry I have been missing for the last couple of days but we had a family emergency, back on track now so...

    ...all totals updated where requested.

    Some fantastic totals in there, we're not quite in February yet and already our savings are mounting up. Well Done us!

    You are very welcome;)

    I keep my ££'s in tins and I love the buzz when I open them and count all those coins:)...not sure about lugging them all to the bank though:p
