  • Hi
    Is there still time to join? I already have my pot and have started filling it!!
  • Loulou4 - of course it's okay to join, stick around and Sue will give you a number. Do you know how much money you have(roughly)? Or is it a surprise??

    It's been a while, things are still as bonkers as usual over here, it's getting a tad competitive with all these people and their additional 'road kill' pots.:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

  • That's right, I was in Paris during the grand opening stage of the last challenge. It was lovely thanks, good to get away, but it did rain.....

    Was Christmas OK at yours? Did the littlies enjoy it?

    Lchicken - yeah it was really good..1st time on my own (opening presents) and it went really well. Except i was up till 5ish as eldest wouldnt sleep and i was still wrapping main presents. Went to my familys on xmas day..got my bag "lost" on NYE which contained my purse with no money in it, bank card, passport and 20 cigs.. next day someone rang me to tell me they had my bank card and when i got there they had everything except my cigs which im really pleased about :) did u have a good one

  • Hi everyone :hello:

    Its been SO long since I last logged on and have just spent a couple of hours reading 40+ pages to catch up - that'll learn me....:rotfl: :rotfl: I have a full time job and also do 3 evenings a week at M&S - they've kept me on til end of Mar 09 which is fab as the extra cash is so welcome - but it does mean my spare time is quite sparse.

    Thank you Sue for making me unique by adding on that 'a' to my number - I feel quite special.... :o

    Some people were asking before about what we would use our sealed pot money for and mine went on a new washing machine as my old one died on me a few weeks ago. It wasn't what was planned, but I am SO glad I managed to save £200 in my pot. else I would have had to panic...:eek: - Hence a HUGE thank you to the Sealed Pot Challengers who have inspired me to keep on the straight and narrow :T

    Here's to a wonderful New Year to all the fab people on this site and Happy and Successful Saving too......

    Trying to Save
    Trying to Save......:o

    Sealed Pot Challenge Member # 205a / Target: as much as possible :pHope to break the £300 mark if possible
