I'm sure your tickets will shoot up at the end jen, even at the very worst I'm sure you'll get your money back. I've just made ANOTHER sale, it's like christmas, and I can withdraw my £50 now .

I think I'm going to have the same problem as you mabel, the only things I tend to spend money on (apart from the big things like car tax) are postage abroad (I buy sheets of 50 stamps at a time for packages going to addresses in this country), when I'm dragged to the ub in Brighton which I'm trying to cut down on, and food. Will have to see how it works out...

no reserve! i though of joining the 20p or £2 saver but i though i would just get through more money as my wallet would be empty also it earns no interest unless it is in the bank or somewhere so i didn;t think i would help me but it has motervated a lot of others. everyone is rocking today!! well done guys

I've got a big piggy bank (made out of papier mache) It just needs a face and a slot!! At the moment I save in a sealed tin (a quid from £ shop) I started one end of last year and when I opened it a couple of months ago it had £122 in it-most of which went in bank as part of my savings I have started a new one since and have no idea how much is in it at the moment, but it won't be alot.

It is, and it really couldn't have come at a better time. How much longer do the tickets have left jen? I'll cross my fingers & toes for you.

That's an impressive amount you managed to save cath, and in a pretty short space of time. Embarassingly I probably love my pigsback money box a bit too much :$.

1 day and 21 hours! left on the tickets

I've got a sealed tin as well, gonna open it in november to either help finish paying the debt( probably) or start my savings (unlikely!)

Nichelette

Ah, that's plenty of time, I'm sure you'll see them shoot up soon .

jenjade
