    Haven't seen the 2021 yet. Have you downloaded/printed off the sheet. Apprantely it's on the site. I got mine off skint dad website. I'm sure it will be done soon, and a number will be allocated. Are you using a sealed pot or doing on online? If I do my online I spend. It. So I have a pot the sheet and a highlighter pen (it works for me) I start with the highest amounts first.
    Good luck.

    Yes printed of the sheet. I had 2 lovely moneyboxes from when the children were young so will be using those for a while then transferring to a tin when they get full.  I'm going to try and do one of December's days each week to take the pressure off when the 'challenge' kicks in.  I have a revolt card that saves my change so going to try and save all of that too. I used it as an emergencies fund last year. And the year before the emergency was the bargains at Wilko Garden sale 😁. That worked out great as I had all my garden stuff when we went into to lock down. Not so lucky this year, finances a lot tighter and the sale not so good for what I needed.
    Im looking forward dropping my coins in daily whether it be the actual day, a high save day, or just picking the one that matches spare coins. My first commitment of 2021.  Good luck yo you and the others taking part too.

    Sounds like a plan I keep looking at greenhouses very tempted. Just ordered plants from Farmer gracys (again) love their plants.
