Hi Everybody.
I was just wondering if any of you MSE's out there had any ideas for challenges for the NEW YEAR ????
I have missed most of the challenges this year as me being a newbie, but I am involved in the £2 pound savers club..
So guys any thoughts ????

Survive Christmas at this stage! I actually make a point of not setting new years resolutions cos I always fail at them! Instead just try to do my best each day, try to forgive myself when it goes wrong & learn from my mistakes. That way I'm constantly learning and moving forward rather than feeling a failure IYKWIM?! Seems to work for me though..Nerd no 109 Long haulers supporters DFW #1! Even in the darkest moments, love and hope are always possible.0

ooh I like the sound of that one mumzy ... would we be saving a certain coin or coins?? eg. all 20ps or 1ps/2ps/5ps .... or would we do that £1 on a certain day thing, where you put all the £1 coins that are in your purse on a friday for example into a pot .... or has anyone got any other ideas how we could do it??

well i want to do the next olympic challenge, then of course moozies will still run but i want some kind of savings one but a big one so i can save loads of cash0

Olympic (a few months I expect), Moozies (weekly recurring) and a long-term saving one - could be doable I think.
Just checked, it's the 08/08/08 (very well timed) so that'll be perfect for a January 8th startNo longer using this account for new posts from 20130 -
I like the idea of empyting my purse on a particular day and not touching it till xmas next year. think I will find that easier than trying everyday.
I am up for any challenges, the more the better if it helps me clear my debt quicker.:jJust starting to face up to my debts. :eek:
Aim for December is to just try and get through without running up anymore debts at this expensive time. Also going to spend my time off over xmas working out a plan for next year.
Would like to be debt free by 30 ( 3 years to go)
