  • #6 signing in 😊 This year I’m using a large coffee tin that was going into the bin at work and sealed it with a very strong glue 😂

    I'm here! I'm in again! Hopefully for a better year this year than last! Same target as last year, my trusty £1k. We're all set for Florida again in September and all pennies in the pot are spending money for Mickey bars and Frozen lemonades so need to be super savey this year.

    #20 is back!!  Hi all! :smile:

    Where did the rest of that year go??  Just posted my declaration as the date (despite it being my wedding anniversary) had completely passed me by.  Ironically LAST year I had a reminder in my phone which I clearly did not roll over - sorted now!

    Hope all are well.  I only really used my Plum account this year as I didn't seem to be getting much in the way of change to save, I haven't included my sporadic ebay sales because I haven't really tracked them, and forgot about Quidco but never mind!  Quidco is less than it has been in the past but I booked our holidays this year using it so have received and am due to receive a couple of nice chunks for doing that, hopefully the latter by Xmas.

    Will attempt to be more present this year!  Just off to update my signature.

    xx

    Hi MrsShazbat, we're all wondering the same thing about where the last year went, it's simply flown by, I know I know that that for sure!

    Your first amount being £3.04 Vicky!
    Not a bad sum either! 

    Enjoy the rest of the week folks!
