Hello everyone, just wondering if I can join. Am hoping to go on holiday for new years and would love to save for spending money! I have a piggy bank ready at home, just need to seal it as I'm one for adding to it then opening it a few weeks down the line!!! Will put all spear change in my purse in it tonight!

Welcome catsy,
You're more than welcome to join us, Sue will be along later to allocate you a number, then you'll be an official member of the sealed pot challenge, good luck saving your spending money

Can't believe we're half way through the year already! This time in 6 months we'll be busy counting all our coins! :j:j:j
When is the official count date anyway?

Getting loads of £2 coins in particular lately but have to wait until the end of June to count the latest batch and bank them.

Good luck everyone

PS Regarding the knitting - I can only knit simple hats and scarves and put them in the charity boxes that I fill at Christmas for children overseas.

Official counting day is 1st December, you can only break into it if you get desperate for cash

A very warm welcome to the thread muchowing and catsy. Good to meet you both. Enjoy yourselves here and have great fun saving, it's addictive so be warned! You'll find your numbers at the bottom of the list on post 2 of page 1, read through posts 1 & 2 as it'll help you with any queries.

Happy six month birthday everyone from me too! :T Ah thanks LC 2, that couple of drinks really hit the spot! You'd best have one on me. :beer:
So long as you were feeling guilty about DW then sparky, that makes it ok - yes?! :rolleyes:Tut tut. I do hope it works out for you both to have the kitchen finally finished on Saturday. Grand opening is there....ah well, we'll all be round for it!! :rotfl: Can you imagine 690 of us cramming our way in, we'd soon have it back to how it WAS!! :eek: Don't tell DW that!!!

Shopping done and £3.67 to put in the pot today! Then DH gave me a tenner to go in too! Bless him!

Sounds like you'll need super glue for that then catsy!!

Hi Bees! That's wonderful that you also knit hats and scarves for kiddies overseas at Christmas. That's mainly what the knitting thread's about on the OS part of the forum.

Have another great day all, it looks to be a beautiful one again, though by eck it was HOT today!

Sue. Any new friends wishing to join us, please just ask and I'll be with you ASAP.
