    Morning everyone,
    £4 into the ppot this morning, change I've had all week. 46p in road change found walking the dog last night, just waiting for the pools man to come in and I should have another 5 £2 coins towards our IoM fund. Yay

    A bit icy outside today folks, stay safe and keep saving

    Great to see you back Gambit!! :D Sparky's so right, we never let any one go from here, after all, we'd be terrified you'd be off our spending rather than potting:D, can't have that now can we! :naughty:

    Thansk Sue... good to be back. Although not on the board I have been collecting this year as amazed how quickly my spare cash adds up. Last year my grand total was £93 :beer: I thought was good considering I only put change I get under £1 in my sealed pot and bearing in mind I always pay for things using my Egg Money card for the cashback, I hardly use cash anymore :p Will see if I can get closer to £150 this year though :T

  • Hello:D

    Thanks for the welcome, I am off to put my number in my sig. I REALLY need to do this, anything off the credit card would be brilliant.

    Put £2 in yesterday, so far today I have managed 1p from the washing machine:o

    I put £5 in my pot on Tuesday that I found while walking to work,not bad since I live in the country and it's only a little village.:)
    Keep adding a little here and there though I don't seem to have cash on me like i used to before everything was paid straight in to the bank.

    Did a small shop in Mr S (£3.16), then went to my WI lunch (paid for in advance last month). Spent £1 on the raffle, and won a lovely jar of acacia honey, so it was a pound well spent.

    Have just added £3.70 to the pot.

    (Didn't say before - any coppers or 5p coins go into my charity jar - the only odd 4p in THE pot was 2x 2p coins found in the street a couple of weeks ago.)

    Finally got to the bank to officially pay in the £17.50 today as funds are running a bit low in the current account. I'm going to fail miserably at my challenge this year I'll still need to have another £107.50 in the pot or banked by then and there's only about £8 left in there tops so .... epic fail so far! That figure includes the £5 or so that was added today after I got back from banking the £17.50 in town too so not good!

    Can you add me to the challenge please? I'm also trying to save some money in the bank, but an extra pot of any spare shrapnel certainly wouldn't do any harm!

    Target for Dec = £200
