    Can you add me this year, aiming to fill the 3ltr vodka bottle that lives by my bed with whatevers left in my purse at the end of the week, not setting a specific target as if I manage to get a bar job tips are likely to boost it.

    Good luck all.

    No 70 reporting for duty again this year - had to break into mine early and I was very glad of it let me tell you

    Hopefully it won't get that bad this year - fingers crossed eh? I've already started and am looking forward to getting rid of the shrapnel into my pot - and hopefully persuading lovely GF to put her spare change in my pot too :T

  • Have just counted the money that is in the demi-john as I was going to bank it, however I have £19.95 in there in varying amounts so instead I am going to use that as my start for this year and see how much it has built up to by this time next year.

    Good luck everyone and hello to the newbies.

  • Brilliant to get started! Have pinched my son's plastic coke money box and sealed it up. Threw all my loose change into it and then needed 8p to add to his fruit and milk money.(Mental note to self, sort out kids school money before filling sealed pot)

    Can I join please?
    I've got one of those big tins from the pound shop that holds £500 so will try to fill that!

    Can I be added please?

    I actually started a sealed pot a couple of weeks ago, which we were going to open on 1/11/09, but I shall change that to 1st Dec.
    My DH has been putting all his change into our tin for the last few years and emptying it every six months or so, he usually gets around £40.

    I am going to aim for £250.00.
