Sealed Pot Challenge 2 "The Return"

sparky0107

Don't forget,
If you've got an HSBC account, the larger branches have coin counting machines , so you don't need bags, and the money is credited into your account by the end of the day, and there's no commission taken out, unlike the coinstar machines :eek:. The only downside is pushing a wheelbarrow through town with your pot in :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Have been looking for a new sealed tin for next year's challenge and haven't seen any cheapy ones anywhere - begrudge paying £3-£5 for a tin - MSE definitely rubbing off on me now lol none of the pound shops have them in yet!!!

Hi everyone -

TheBees are still adding a few coins every day and look forward to 1st December for the big count. :j

I've managed to get myself a 3 month temporary contract at a posh supermarket beginning with W over Christmas and everything I earn is going to be thrown at the mortgage.

Good luck everyone.
