Sealed Pot Challenge 2 "The Return"

poorbabe

I've (re)started my pot with a £2 coin. Will be interesting to see how much I manage to save by the year end.

rancid-a

Hello all. Been months since I popped in here Think I'm gonna burn in hell or maybe somewhere even hotter too. My tin got opened ages ago, all sorts of needs unfortunately (Boo, hiss!!). However I was never temped to ask for my work savings club money back (£25 gets deducted straight from my weekly wage, Jan to November end.) So still done well there and that will be given back the start of December I think.

I've also bought my TWO saving tins from Bhs already, Okay so they were £3 each, but they have cool designs & theres no plug to get in easy. One tin is for silver, the other for notes & £1 coins. Coppers go in those little coin bags you get from the bank & will be swapped for a few pound coins when full. Already been banging the money in, there's no stopping me this time!

Roadkill? I don't normally find, but I was using one of those awful self sevice checkouts in Tescos the other day but It didn't seem to work, giving out a "Notes are dispensed below the scanner" warning. It suddenly clicked that someone had left a fiver in the cash drop tray

A lovely £2 coin for the tin today!!

Well done GBN, at least someone's putting it in instead of taking it out!!! Keep on striving to save everyone, we're getting so close to the end now and you'll be so pleased you did come December the 1st! We might even get back onto DFW if we're seen to be more sincere!

poorbabe keep at it hard, you might be surprised yet!!

Lucky you on the £5er rancid, good to see you back too! All the best with your tins next year, you sound so determined - good luck!

Good luck everyone, as sparky says above (thanks a lot sparky!) we have just 30 to go (29 by now!) let's really make it count for something great - for you ALL!!!

Sue. New friends wishing to join us, please just ask below, I'll be with you ASAP.

Hiya LC 2, no problem as it wasn't your fault at all. Towards the weekend you said something to sparky and he replied to you missing off the vital 2. Therefore LC thought her name was being wrongly used.:eek: Don't worry about it though as she's not worried too much but was just letting sparky know that she is the one and only LC!!! :j

In case of any confusion to others; Little Chicken is known as LC
luckycharlie is known as LC 2
and Elsie is known as Our Elsie (by the way, where the devil are you again Elsie??)

I hope that sorts things out a little; no need for any punches to be thrown...other than at sparky who just made a simple mistake!!! :j:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Sue (I'm me, the one and only!) :D:D

Well I'm still saving.. mine wont be opened until late March/early April though to be converted into euros for my France trip - well, that's unless something disastrous happens before then, but I'm hoping not!

I am able to duck, you know, Sue :rotfl:, and I am only a male, too many of you ladies picking on me this week, I'm going to go and lie down in a darkened room , or maybe kerfuffle's got a spare room for me to hide in .

There are a few people who've gone AWOL over the last couple of weeks, hope they're all OK.

Anyhow, if anyone is passing Mathew street in Liverpool city centre on Friday about 11:00 am, look out for a group of scooters, and mods outside the Cavern Club, I'll be in amongst them, there's a photo shoot for a mod weekend in May 2010, and they wanted some mods on scooters to come down, me being the shy retiring type , thought I'd go along for the ride :rotfl:

Hallo all. Five golden coins into my piggy-wig last night:beer:
And some change...:TCan't wait until the 1st DEC. think I'm going to use whatever's in my pottie for spending money in Russia. Got my visa today....but I go to Marrakech and Munich before that. Who said chickens can't fly:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Hope you're all having a good week. LCx
