    Hello lovely people,

    May I join the challenge too? I've already emptied a celebrations tin of its sweets (I didn't eat them all, honest!) and have wrapped enough parcel tape around it to be a deterrent! (I think, but lets see what happens a few days before payday!). Have already put in about £4! woo hoo!

    Thanks

    P.S. Will be opening 1/12/08 (not quite a year I know but think this is going to be a christmas fund!!)
    Student loan debt - Can't bear to think about it! Prob £15,000. arrghh!
