    I would love to join again this year, and do not have a total in mind, as any amount is useful towards Christmas 2025!

    I see I have been allocated #25 again, thank you! Could I politely ask the name is changed to Milki though please?! 😬
    Easy typo, so no worries!!

    Thanks for running this thread again, and looking forward to saving and reading about others savings too! x

    A whole 4p in the pot, I decided a while ago to use Our dearly missed Uncle's big red pot that he used to chuck his shrapnel in and then give to the kids for christmas as a place to throw the coppers. It has been sitting unopened on the shelf for a while, one day I might even open it lol.

    Huge thanks for running this again Sue
    Please count me in again, with a target of £1500.
    Pot is strangely light at the moment but I’m pleased that I already don’t know how much is in there already. Something over ten pounds so far I think
