Hi Sue UU. Nice to see you about still encouraging people to save with the Sealed Pot Challenge
I missed out this year as you can see by my lazy siggy. HOWEVER. I did, as usual join our work saving club. It's ace. They take money straight off our wages (£35 a week this year for me) and then in November. we get it all back. For me it's just a bit less tempting than a home made potI also bought one of those large can things recently and am dropping bits & bobs in, not too much though. If anyone's around the Wakefield area, these tins are only £1 in Gimmi Gizmo (a shop in The Ridings centre) Be warned though - they aint easy to get into...I had to use my mums Culinaire one touch can opener....twice!
Have fun everyoneSealed Pot Challenge 15 #78

Then again.........:) Hope the rain cleared up and you were able to go to the BBQ.
rancid-a, it's so good to see you back again! You bet I'm still urging folk on to save, that includes you 'n all if you're coming back more often. £35 being saved per week is GREAT!! Course, as with work we could always get your wages bypassed to me so some is put in [STRIKE]my[/STRIKE] a pot for you?!It doesn't matter how much you're putting in your pot so long as you try and make it a little more regular - you CAN do it - even if tis only a few pence. Go on rancid, I won't give up on you and you know that!!!
Take care all, stay safe and healthy and have a good week.

Hi girls, good to see I'm not all alone here.
I was pleased to hear the rain didn't spoil things LC, tho looks like you almost did that in trying to compete with your piggy-wig to see who could indulge the most!!Only kidding as you know. Well done with the £2.
Good for you too GRB.....
....and you our Kerry, a few pence are better than none.
After shopping I was left with £3.40 for the pot.
Have a good day tomorrow all, night night.
