    Hi all :)

    Sorry I went AWOL for the end of 2010 but I kept up with the challenge and we managed to save over £50 in the pot :j:j and we haven't spent it yet :D

    If possible could you amend my target to £75? Thanks ... Number 866 xxx

    Have made myself a money box using a quality street tin, with the lid glued on and hole made in the pot. :D Already added a load of change that was left from bagging up coins we already had £23 of change ready for the bank. :j

    Happy New Year!!

    I'll echo these sentiments if I may, Happy New Year to all.

    On the penny potting front - I've emptied my purse of all coins under $1.00 so that I'll have a brand new start in the morning for a brand new year, and I've potted $6.50
