    :hello: Hi Everyone
    Nothing in the pot today had a nsd so no change. Over the weekend I managed to reach £100 in the £2 club so was well pleased Had to empty my jar cos it was full so got my DH to do it so I wasn't tempted to count it.Have hidden it away untill December. He has hidden it so well I can't get to it .It's like he doesn't trust me not to count it.:rotfl: :rotfl:

    Hope you are all well and your little pots are filling up x LC2

    Hi all,
    Sorry I haven't been on for ages.
    I'm still trying to save but there haven't been many £2 coins about lately.
    Today was the final payment on my car loan. Yippeee!! I now own my car:j :j :j

    Hi all

    First time on in a few days, not had any roadkill but the pot is nicely increasing :D £4.12 gone in over the last couple of days and hopefully the OH will have some bits of shrapnel when he gets home from work. He's on lates this week so its a bit weird being in on my own, but counting the pennies helps :rotfl:
    :jYou've got to be in it to win it!! Just believe to receive!! :j

    Hi Emmsie from a fellow Bedford person :D

    Nothing in pot over last couple of days, need to get some nice shiney £2 coins.

    OH is attempting to quit smoking though so hopefully if he succeeds I will be able to nab some more change from him.

    We are a quarter of the way through already!

  • well we had some roadkill on Saturday, 6p so that went into piggy! Put some other coinage in on Saturday to.

    Going to start another Sealed Pot as moving to my new flat at the end of the month and will need curtains and a cooker, got most other things. I'm wanting to put notes and larger coins into this pot and my Dad has started me off with a nice big £20 note! hoping to put at least a £5 in tomorrow, if not a £10!

    cheers

    A few golden coins in the pottie today as I met a friend for lunch. I'm starting to get a bit stressed at the lack of money in my current account, and the fact that I have no job. I'm trying not to stress too much as OH is working, but I like to have my own money. Glad to see everyone is still feeding their pots. No Sue though, is her lappie still playing up???
    :grin: Save me from spending...

    6p into converted mug box today.

    Not really spending so not really potting. I did see some more roadkill today 10p and 5p but some kids had glued them to the floor (I realised before I went in for the kill)

    I didn't think that happened these days, not since the late 80's early 90's - they can't have been stuck there for almost 20 years, surely!!

    jpwhittle - has Noah ever had Tonsilitis? Our lass had a nasty bout when she was about 2 and it left her with a 'tumour' on her wrist. The word tumour then scared me, but finally it turned out ok and she was alright and it went away, but they weren't sure what to do at first. I do hope there's good news about Noah soon and whatever it is is treatable and will GO!!!.........Hi young Jess and good for you with the gym and the swimming pool signing!
