Thanks!
£8.78 across today, an Amazon payment that I'd forgotten about and had already transferred from my own money into the mortgage pot. So as I wasn't expecting it I decided I didn't need it

I think i will leave off the target if thats ok? I always seem to lose momentum when working upwards towards something as it seems so far away (dont want to spend it lol) and im really enjoying watching this grow:heart: I love my gorgeous little girl0 -
Forgot to add that another £1.21 has gone in this morning :cool::heart: I love my gorgeous little girl0

More clunks for me after I cashed in my actual sealed pot (naughty I know, but my virtual pot provides interest - unlike the 'real' pot). Up to £117.02
Great to see all the regulars on thread and new faces appearing too!
Keep up the good work folks :money:0 -

Excellent idea for a club :T
yeh, im pretty broke myself, but all my outgoings are covered, if i had the little bits of money in my pocket that im putting in my virtual pots i know i would just spend it on chocolate/magazines and other non-essentials.
i like you calling it a club, perhaps im not too old for clubbing after all;):DProud to be dealing with my debts Nerd #992 LBM 30.06.08 Debt [strike]£3292[/strike] £1646 (50% paid, all interest free) Sealed pot member #434 £65.09 & Virtual sealed pot member #001 £82.07+£33.04+£112.83=£227.94 Gave up smoking 30.01.09 DfDay 01.12.09Have nothing in your homes that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful (sell it instead)

ooh, very naughty. iv got two 'real' pots, one for 50p and 20p (which is totally sealed, i have to use a can opener to open), and one for 10p, 5p, 2p and 1p. im thinking of cashing the smaller change one in every so often, it had £11 in it last time. i think these challenges are open to personal adjustments.xxProud to be dealing with my debts Nerd #992 LBM 30.06.08 Debt [strike]£3292[/strike] £1646 (50% paid, all interest free) Sealed pot member #434 £65.09 & Virtual sealed pot member #001 £82.07+£33.04+£112.83=£227.94 Gave up smoking 30.01.09 DfDay 01.12.09Have nothing in your homes that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful (sell it instead)
