    I love this idea! Would I be able to be added to the list? Goal will be £365 (a bit late to start, but hoping to make it up).

    Thanks!

    Hello and Welcome! We would love to have you join us, it's a great way to save up throughout the year;)

    DebtFreeDebbie your number is 83

    Good Luck

    Good morning everyone,

    Welcome to our newest member DebtFreeDebbie - everyone is free to join us and it's amazing how quickly the money grows on our challenge. It doesn't matter if you join us after our original start date, there is plenty of 2017 left in order to catch up and you won't be sorry;) This challenge takes away a lot of the stress at Christmas and leaves you free to enjoy the festivities:D

    Some fantastic totals being recorded by us all (and we're only just in February!) - keep up the great work!

    All totals updated where requested.

    Enjoy the rest of your weekend:)

    I've already got 3 claim tickets into TCB for purchases not tracked and it's only Feb. If they click through together it will be a nice boost but it's frustrating, it’s been happening since windows 10 :(

  • Morning everyone,


    As Jo Blogs has reminded us, we do need to remember that the old £1 coins will cease to be legal tender in October.


    "Everyone with a piggybank or coin jar needs to turn them up upside down and shake out all your £1 coins, because as of 15 October the current £1 coins will cease to be legal tender and will soon be un-spendable. They are being replaced with new 12-sided £1 coins from next month and by 15 October, shops will no longer accept the old pound coins."
