  • Thank you jadewest94 .  The account would be good for those just starting to save up to £50 per month from the look of that.  The Nat!onwide one will take up to £200 per month but you need to have a Flex account in order to open it.  Both great though  :)
    Just a few coppers potted this week as we haven't been very far.  The weather today is wet and windy, it's foul and not looking much better for next week either so there will be more NSD's  o:)

    Picked up 6p roadkill in motorway services toilets on our trip away, potted it with a couple of £1 coins.

    Hi SPCers! I hope you've all had a lovely Weekend, despite the weather!. Here's hoping we can all save well, keep VERY healthy too!! Save in a way that's best for you best for YOU!
    For those who are poorly or feeling low, take care, and get well soon, for now here are love and hugs to help look after yourselves ❤️


    Ah, thanks a lot, Jade! So often banks and building societies give offers to new customers only, but this isn't so bad.

    Hi Money_Choices, I hope you've/you're (unsure whether you were on holiday last week or this week) really enjoyed your week as well as decluttered well!! It sounds as though you're saving excellently!! 🤗

    Indeed Hummingbird, at least it's up to the first thousand for folk.

    Strange banks will be offering more at a time when so many poor folk will find it hard to save at all! 🤔
    Very well potted Peony!!! I'm so pleased you made it. 😊

    What a foul day it was indeed, little_sweetie!! Still, at least we'll be used to it for the rest of the week! 😉

    A great find LMD!!! 😉


    Have a lovely Wednesday and a good week folks. Here's hoping we can all save well,
    keep healthy too!!
    Save in which ever way is best for YOU

    Sue xx

    NB Folks: The opening date for this year is 27th OCTOBER 2022

    Morning, I have potted a few £s in change from my purse, not sure how much exactly.  This included the £1:10 I didn’t spend on the Danish pastry I “really” wanted on the way back from the post office yesterday 🍩

    Afternoon Potters, what a horrible day we are having today and it's set to get worse tomorrow :(

    Interesting reading the posts about savings accounts, let's hope the interest rate keeps rising for all us savers.  When we bought our first house in the eighties, interest rates were at 14% and now that we have some savings put away, we are lucky to get 1%!  Let's hope the rate rises a bit more this year and gives us a better return.  

    £9.17 in the pot this week.  Enjoy the rest of your week and keep safe :)
