    Count me in :)

    I had some good news on Tuesday regarding a job (first job in 6 years after having my boy!!) so we already know we can live off my OH wages, but I still want to try save as much as I can for special occasions and treats.

    I think keeping a total on here, and seeing how other people get on will help me be stricter with my pots.

    Im up for the 20p challenge, and possibly the £2 coin challenge. Dont seem to get many of them but with this new job ya never know!!

    1p,2p and 5p already go into my sons pot, every few months ill have a count up and get at least 1 full bag of pennies to take to the bank.
