Argh, after 5 days of being stuck in my flat I have just buckled and opened my £1 can. There was £92 in there :T (and add on the £20 that I STILL owe it from my almost no-spend-week a few weeks ago and it is £112)
I do feel bad, but having done it I figure that it will do more good paid off a debt so am going to bank it and then knock it off of a my loan (will put it in my siggy so that I don't forget)
I bore easily so the fact I haven't done it already this week is a signal that I am either getting better at controlling my impatience or that I was just too ill and am finally getting better.£34,547 (Dec 07); Current debt: £zilch (Debt free December 2010)

:)My sealed pot is still going strong. It is an old brown cardboard box that used to contain tea bags - so I can't see the contents. Hopefully there should be about £10 in there already - not loads I know but I'm getting there - I do the weekly spend challenge and when I come in under budget - the remainder goes into the sealed pot.
I think it is such a good idea - I can't wait for December to see how much is in there - am aming for £50.Mortgage FreeSave £5,000 in 2020[CENTER:j0 -

I must try harder!
