  • I've added £10 for week 10 as that was what was left in my purse from shopping yesterday.  Some big ones still to go but stil plenty of littl-ies left too :)

    Hope everyone is keeping well in the cold, it's supposed to be getting milder this week, fingers crossed!

  • I used cash when I was shopping yesterday, I had my nail extensions removed and resisted having a gel manicure added back on... I've done it myself at home instead.  I've therefore filled envelopes 34, 1, 2 and 4. 

    Hope everyone's doing OK? We have already saved almost £550 between us and it's not even February yet!

    I should have just put them all in the same one lol... I may take @BlueJ94's advice and pop some in a bonus envelope as a nice surprise at the end.

    Envelope #8 at £8 for me please. I've been thin on the ground money wise but I have freelance income arriving tomorrow so I emptied all my £1 coins into an envelope. I like the idea of bonus money 🤗.
