"Sealed Pot Challenge 4"
Comments

Another recommendation for Quidco here - I have used it for just over two years and I have never had a problem - I know that it gets mixed reviews on here but I for one would recommend it to everyone.
£7.86 for me today which was my change from Sainsbury's earlier. DS is styarting street dancing tomorrow which costs £2 a time so I am hoping it will give me a bit more loose change.
Hope everyone has a great weekend - whats the weather like where you all are? Its grey and foggy hereMoving on upSPC #382 ~ £40 banked

A stunning £3.59 for me today :T, went foraging through the draws (not the wifes though
).
It was like a copper coloured rain dropping into my pot....
I'm thinking of having a go at the paper mache to decorate it - the child in me's trying to get out more than normal :rotfl:. If anyone's decorated their pot this way, what have they 'created':D. I chose to use the word created, because mine's going to be a visual extravaganza :rotfl:.
Glad you've all had a good day, hopefully we can all have a better one tomorrow :beer:.😇 Sealed Pot Challenge: Member No: 20: 2012 = £92.14; 2013 = £45.27; 2014 = £54.70; 2015 = ; 2016 = £70.38 2022 = £10.58 2023 = ???? 🍀 2023 DECLUTTERING CAMPAIGN Mrs SD 65/365 so far. 👾 The Other Way, or the MSE Way: My Personal Challenge 🍀 The Other Way, or the MSE Way: My Personal Challenge 20120 -

frasersmum, it was snowing here all afternoon but has stopped now and turned into a slippery inconvenient mush!bleugh.
kids went to school in their normal school shoes cos it was okay this morning, by the time we'd walked home their little feet were like ice

I'm not a quidco fan, much prefer Topcashback as they don't charge you £5 a year for the privilege of using the site!
A few small coppery ones in to my bottle today, back to work as normal from sunday so hoping my work tin will start to build up again.
AND in big scary news the boy and I move in to 'our' flat next weekend, just the small matter of paying the letting agents a total just shy of £2k for it!It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

Yup I don't think most of us are physically able to walk past money lying around all lonely in public places (aka road kill).It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

hmm beginning to think the hubby has gotten wise to me, all the usual hiding places for loose change are brassic! not a penny to be found in his toolbox, jeans pockets, bedside drawer or down the side of the computer
. . . . might have to tail him to work one day and break into his locker while hes not looking as I think that might be the new hidey hole. D you think his work buddies would notice me with a hairpin trying to pick his padlock?
On the bright side, i did have 65p in my purse so still a few silver clunks for my tin
Edited to add, YES absolutely, if theres money in the street i'll pick it upits all money toward my debts, im not in Sparkys league though, hes a roadkill finding machine :rotfl:

I spend my days walking around actively looking for change - best places are bus stops and outside shops (and at the self service checkout at our local Mr T's)

I've just decided to pop £4 into my pot after all! £1 for each toiletry item that I have used up so far by doing the no buying toiletries challenge!
will keep doing this with each product I use up!
