  • Welcome to all new challengers, leothecat I must have somehow missed you. I’ll you update the challenger list and add you this later on this evening. But for now I’m trying to lose some pounds and go to my local slimming group.

    £4.00 added to my pot today from a little scratchcard win. I don’t personally buy them but had one in a Christmas card.

    For anyone that uses Monzo you can do the save a penny challenge via the app

    If you down load the IFTTT app there are loads of Monzo options on there and one allows you to link it to your Monzo account and set up a pot which will automatically debit your account 1p 2p and so on each day

    Won't be for everyone but it's great for me who struggles to organise myself at times

    Hi all, can I join too please? Hope I'm not too late!

    I won't be doing it in order as I may struggle with that, and I'm going to use this as motivation to save more/spend less and to put the money towards paying off my debt.

    For the first three days I've added £5 to a pot.

    Hi, can I join please? Just added 3p on day 3 to my jar. Thanks
  • I’m in again please. Already have my December deposits tucked away safely (mostly the larger amounts) to take pressure off the later months when I start to get restless and want to open my pot.

    I had number 5 last year.
