I have read through this thread and feel like its time I joined you and start my pot for Dec 2011. Too many times have I left it late and been disappointed that I haven't had the pennies I would like for pressies and fun times.
Please can I join.charlieann wrote: »Hi,
I would like to join the challenge please.
We have been saving our lose change for LO since he was born and been putting it in his [STRIKE]piggy[/STRIKE] cow bank (mainly coppers). We emptied it out and took most of it to the bank before Xmas and he had £53 lucky boy, he's only 18months!
Were going to keep on doing this him and thought it might be fun to do it as a challenge.kirsty822001 wrote: »Hello, I would love to join this sealed pot challenge,have a sealed biscuit tin that I have been putting coppers and 5p's in for last few months,,no clue as to what the total is, am leaving it there till its full, just keep adding to it!
I will run another new tin alongside for bigger change, this will be my challenge tin, so looking forward to it, I was collecting £2 coins last yr for a bit but kept delving into them when we needed busfare/dinner money,but they definitely helped us out being there!!
good luck to all and thankyou for all who post tips and advice all really helps me ;-)

total bummer. BUT.... the £300 i made from those couple of items will be going straight into my pot once i get it from the bank
and of course, and pennies left over from the wander i will have in town afterwards

I have not been out, so no change. Im going to have to get a bank i cant get into as well. I have a CLEAR pig but I dont want to see what is in the bank. I will head to the poundshop tomorrow and get the Tins that they have.
Im in two minds to carry over my money Imade from selling the odd cupcake in work. Or take it to the shops.
