Last night I found a link to the "Save a pound a day for Christmas 2017" thread.Deciding that three pots for this challenge isn't enough :eek:,I joined up,with the aim of having that as a pot that my family know about,and we can use for Christmas next year.It does feel a little bit disloyal to SPC,sorry.

More challenges make things more interesting, I have done the christmas one for two years now along with this one...

Hi SU. It is just a digital display - no sound thankfully. I was thinking of covering up then mummy tummy suggested removing the battery - which seemed a more elegant and better looking solution. But now that my brother has mentioned the wussy BGPs, I can't do either in case he spots it when he pops round. I swear sometimes we just revert to being kids about stuff. Stupid but fun.

I also found the Save a £1 Christmas 2017 yesterday. Definitely think we can run the two challenges together. They fit so well.

Awake at 6am on my day off - yes I forgot to turn off the alarm clock!

Have a great Monday everyone

Please can I join? Cleared my purse of change to get me started.

Welcome Neddrae, our lovely Su will be along to give you a number to pop in your sig shortly. In the meantime read all the advice on the first post and find yourself a sealed pot to start shoving all that change into. It soon mounts up and will be a lovely amount come opening day.

I got 3 x £2 coins today after a trip to the city to do our giving tree run (where we realised halfway there that we had actually forgotten to put the presents in the car :rotfl:) and we bought our £1 b00ts meal deals. Also a handful of silver all went in the same pot because I got confused and chucked the £2 coins in the wrong one

I am on a mission at the moment, my sister came up to visit and had a game called 'Categorically Speaking' its about 30 years old and she found it in a charity shop! We all had a right laugh playing it and so now i'm trying to find us one for christmas day. Trawled all our charity shops I could find in the city and none of them had it, only one person selling the rehashed WH Smith version on ebay, so no easy task me thinks, but I shall keep looking!
