Hi,
I have saved £450 in my sealed £1 pot, £1030 in sealed £2 pot. I have also saved £125 in Christmas savings, exchanged for Amazon vouchers due to arrive end of the month, added to the £115 I have already in Amazon gift cards from Quidco and TopCashback. I have also been saving from my work in a sacrifice thingie, (where instead of paying you your flex rewards each month, I have asked for it to be paid in my December pay instead) that is just under £400.
Total
£1 - £450
£2 - £1030
Christmas Savings Scheme - £125
Work Sacrifice - £398
Amazon gift vouchers - £115
So total in all is £2188.00
Not bad being that I have been off work since October 2017 and still no sign of being able to return so now been forced onto half pay from this months pay, so glad I have Christmas covered, although im going to have to be frugal not knowing what is going on with work, and still having bills to pay and other adulting things...
Hopefully 2019 will bring me some luck or just some answers.

Hi everyone, can't believe we will be going into a near year!
Anyway, here is my declaration for #283:
Sealed Post: £61.05
Tesco Vouchers: £33.50
Tesco Christmas Saver: £200
Tesco Bonus from Christmas Saver: £12
Work Christmas Fund: £255.05
Total: £561.60
I hadn't put into my sealed pot as much as I had liked as this would get us some groceries in January when DH's work is non existent. Also the work Christmas fund is towards all the beautifying for Christmas and parties (just something I do for myself so I don't have to worry about getting the money for those). The rest is for food etc. I also had a virtual pot for Christmas presents but I don't know the figure as I have already spent it on gifts.Barclaycard: £4,217.55/£5 = 0.11% | Tesco £3,810.55/£3,770.55 = 1.05%
Total: £8,027.80/£5 = 100%/0.06%
Mortgage £99,692/£51,652.33 51.8%
Car Loan: £9,217.20/7,527.38 81.67%
