    Im declaring £673!!

    We had £63 in our change pot and I have also saved £500 in notes and my partner had saved £110 in notes so the change gets split and added to our individual notes savings. Im so pleased, this will be the first Christmas I don't spend on credit cards and Im thrilled! In a way I don't want to spend it lol

    Ready to head over to the 11th challenge now!
