    Another 40p added, my total is now £22.80 :T.

    I'm going to carry on saving after the challenge is over, as want to fill the piggy bank up and then put it into my ISA. The pig can hold at least a couple of hundred.... maybe more, looks as if i might be here a while :rolleyes: hehe.

    Well done everyone :j.
