    Could I join please?

    I'm doing it slightly differently but the idea is the same; I have a spreadsheet with 10 cents, 20 cents etc up to 3 euros and am aiming to save each amount 10 times over the year ( only 300 days as I get paid less over the summer).

    Count me in. I mix my days and tick them off. I have a sealed tin and am determined this year to do all the days before I open it and if possible get ahead to open it pre Xmas. In previous years I've had to open it for emergencies which wasn't ideal but I always found 100 plus in there so it was good to have had it.

    Am up to £12/£667 so far thanks to rummaging through my old work bag. Even have the kids on board by getting them to highlight the boxes that are stuck to the tin.
