Hi
#83 £244
I don't pop in very often but I'm still saving my pound a day, and transfer my £7 on a Monday.
I use tcb so anything from there I will be saving up to October/November and then will get a gift card, last year I only had about £15 to claim as I started using it later in the year, so far I'm up to £38, I just have to remember to go on tcb when I buy stuff :rotfl:

Hi all,
I'm now on:
£573/£732
I've bought my 1st Xmas prezzie too, I think it's the first time ever that I've bought anything before December, so lovely to have the money put aside so that I can grab a bargain when I see one. :j0 -
Another Christmas present bought, not from my pot as I used my CC but that's okay.
Found it at a service station and had to get it as it was one of those random kinda presents that you probably wouldn't see again,

Hi all! I missed the month of July completely....think Wimbledon distracted me lol..... sorry for all the usual excuses, time to roll up sleeves for August. I have received my first Christmas Catalogue through the post which was for Dog's Trust.......... made me realise I need to concentrate. Next task will be to not to get too caught up in the Olympics to forget about saving.£10 a day extra in May '18[B]£35/310[

Hello everyone I am glad to report that my new total is £379.00/£350, #98
I have reached my goal :j
I saved £20.00 on my new coat so that went into the kitty. also cashed in all my survey money. I will still be putting in £5.00 a week into my cash ISA for a rainy day/ birthday gifts for next year. Good luck to everyone else, I hope you reach your targets.£2 savers club 2025 #2= £480 -
£30 added to the pot, from Top Cashback, finally a pending transaction reverted to payable...
Feels like I have waited a eternity for it, but its potted now, paid out as an Amazon voucher as I have done all of my TCB payouts that are eligible...
