Hello
Please can I join in? I know it's a little late in the year, but having recently lost my job and being diagnosed with severe arthritis (not even 40 yet!) We seriously need to change our spending habits and get our 1500 overdraft cleared.

I only recently discovered mse and am trying as many of the challenges & tips as I possibly can.

I am aiming to reach £100 by Dec 1st with the £2 saving please. This will help me to buy a few Xmas gifts for our 2
dd. 's

Can I also add that having spent the last month reading every single post in the debt free challenges you lot are an absolute inspiration x

Good luck sillyspender, sorry to hear you're having a hard time. You'll get through it I'm sure

Another two coins for me, now up to £94.

#27 £2016 in 2016 = £763.61

#42 £2 Savers Club = £160

*Savers Club not included in overall 2016 savings until the tin is opened and my estimates have been confirmed later in the year.

Scored ten of the little things this week - Don't think I've collected so many so fast.

Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

6 more from DH. He's starting to regret agreeing to handing them all over :rotfl:
