    Hi, I've been awol since opening my tin in November last year but am restarting this challenge TODAY!!! I am number 45.

    My target will be smaller this year as I live off my works pension and savings which have remained the same but living expenses have been steadily rising :(. I think I shall aim for £250 this year.

    I have found an old blue Roses chocolate tin I am going to use. My children gave me it one Xmas and it must be well over 20 years old. I am not going to selotape the top and will use willpower to stop me dipping into it - famous last words :rotfl:

    Today I potted £5.30 xx
    Debt free - Mortgage free - Work free ( in that order :) )

    Hi all, I'm here - I just went awol for a few days as I'm trying to make it in freelance writing (I really want to stay at home with my baby girl, I don't want to put her in day care while I go to the office each day). Hope everyone is ok :)

    I haven't potted anything over the last few days, but I have guarded it from husband pilfer attack :D

    Evening all,
