Hi Sue and welcome to the thread.
Molly will soon spot your post and give you a number and she, like us all, will be really pleased to have you with us. The original idea was to save until December, ready for Christmas, but others have different intentions eg a holiday or paying off a bill etc. So go with what suits you best.....after all it's your cash and the main thing is that you SAVE it!! This thread has done me a power of good, my hubby too who's even chipping in each week!!! :eek:
All the best Sue, save well.
Sue (We do share a great name!):D
Well said Sue.Thank youlost my way but now I'm back ! roll on 2013

Hello sealed pot savers, I am shamelessly admitting to not keeping up with this (or the grocery) thread but I am still saving every penny that I can.
Are we still opening the banks on 1st December for the final count?
Welcome newcomers!I reserve the right not to spend.
The less I spend, the more I can afford.

Traded some £1 coins for £2 so I'm now up to £150.00. DD has opened her sealed tin today as we were saving for our holiday.She's been saving birthday money, pocket money ect since xmas and has £57 to take away with her.For a 6 year old I think that's pretty good going!
Ds is still away at army camp and will open his when back.he will be lucky to have £10 in his.You know what 14 year olds are like.I'm now wondering if I should open my £1 tin and my sealed pot tin and use for holiday spends then start saving again for Dec 1st.what does everyone think?lost my way but now I'm back ! roll on 2013
