  • Hi everyone

    Potted my £1 coin today and wait for it ..............................a further 5 x 20p's :j:j:j:j:j oooohhhhh the excitment of dropping all those coins in the pot.

    Off supermarket shopping in the morning - shame we use trolley coins - I'd have made sure I returned the trolley and claimed the £1 for the pot.:rotfl:Will check to see if there is any roadkill by trolley bays :D

    Well done everyone

    All done ruby.;)

    Hello Potters...I have been fighting with my pinkies as to whether or not I take the £2 coin out of my purse and put it in the pot..well the pinkies won and the said £2 plus 34p in change ended up being dropped in the pop. Boy do I feel good. £2 coin has been lurking in the dark depths of my purse for over a week ...another test for me as to whether or not I can kerb my spending and it seems to be working with all the encouragement on here:D

    I am now making good progress with my plan to sort out my debts and be in a happer place at the end of 2011.:(:D

    Confirmed sales of 3 mobiles today £21.74 coming my way the change will go in the pot when it arrives so a good day all in all with hardly any spending just milk and a small bar of choccie (a little treat):rotfl::rotfl:

    Happy potting potters:cool:

    A very warm welcome, SJP, and igaveupnowimback. It's a pleasure to have you both with us! Have fun saving. :D You'll find your numbers at the bottom of the list on post 3 of page 1. Please read through posts 1 & 2 as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge. NB. Please pop your number on your sig, it helps so very much. NB. Pots are emptied on 1st December 2011, thank you

    SJP, Sealed Pot Challege and Virtual Sealed pot are indeed 2 separate challenges, but we're the best! :D You're not a bit blonde, you just didn't know the answer to the question. Far blonder not to have asked! :)

    blondy24 what you said about your OH was so very sweet, he sounds a treasure.
    I hope you had a very Happy Birthday, blondy24 :bdaycake: All the best for a great and better future!

    Not a good time of year for pubs to be taking staff on, henna, sad to say. Bad enough for that sort of trade in normal winters but they've been sorely hit over the last few years and will be even more so now Dracula George O has his claws in! Still "we're all in this together"!!!! I dislike him intensely! :mad:

    Very many thanks, Diane! I do hope he is soon.

    Great to see you again, keza!! :hello:

    Oh happycrafter, they're perfect - for summer! Ok, another challenge - what about winter??!! Bet you sparky buys a pair tomorrow - through Quidco!!


    A great start, Az, but no chew thanks!

    Strewth, welshkaz, seems no-one's immune right now, I do hope he soon gets better.

    Jammy, you're addicted, I hope you know that!! :D
    Hi Sue So sorry your GS is still poorly give him lots of(((Hugs))) from me. I would rather be ill myself then the little ones cos you feel so helpless don't you? XLC2

    Me too any day, LC 2, thanks so very much for your kind thoughts and hugs and I will certainly give them to him.

    Nicki_Sue, you don't need to sign up again, but please pop your No on your siggy, it's 473

    You know me by now LC, I just can't hold back! :p

    Will do Ruby_E, just as soon as I've finished on here, all the very best!

    You are doing so very, very well, Footiemad, just don't stop!

    Have a lovely day ALL, stay safe happy and healthy!

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Morning everyone
    Received an email from Quidco this morning telleing me I'm getting another £1.56 cashback from Debenhams for using my debit card in-store when I bought my bargain coat during the Christmas sales YAY, so I'm waiting for a grand total of £203.02 cashback from Quidco, so thats the spending fund for our trip to Poland sorted, just need a bit more overtime in work and the flights and hotel will be sorted.

    I'll be popping my usual £2 into the sealed pot when I get home, I've also got a MS later on so any change will be deposited too.

    Have a great day everyone, stay safe and keep saving
