    Hiya all...

    My daily quid potted and 48p..... :j

    Wont be anything else to pot this weekend though as we decorating the nursery, so wont be spending money....

    On the plus side, i've found loads of old gold.... Bag weighs a bit too, but my kitchen scales aren't digital (only use em a couple of times a year, so can't justify an upgrade:A) but it looks as though its on the 100g mark - i'm really trying not to get too excited....... :p

    Off to have a look on Hattons website, since the reviews look good...


    Wow, that looks like it's going to be £1000 worth of gold, good luck! I sent some gold yesterday, will let you know if they any good :D

    Added £3.50 to the pot today.

    Good evening fellow potters...what a lovely day its been the sun had got its hat on today...all be it a tad cold.

    Caught up on everyones adventures thus far and I have a full tummy with my home made chilli. So glad I resisted the temptation to buy a ready made curry from Morrisons and saved myself £3.49..:D But did have a few things to get like milk and noticed there were lots of offers on the shelves bagged a couple but didn't go mad..Parazone only 50p, bag of salad 50p and they were selling multi packs at £1 for 10....may be not the right thread but thought it was worth letting my fellow potters know..may have to go on another thread.

    After all that I have managed to pot the princely sum of £2.82 from the change. Not sure if there will be anything to pot tomorrow as not planning on going out. Have to watch the pennies till pay day but may find some lurking around!!! :p.

    So glad I have found this thread, its making me think twice about spending and I too am getting obsessed with potting in my pot who will now be called Rosie as its an old roses tin and not from last christmas either. :D

    I have also been telling friends and family about SPC to encourage them and see who can get the most. Nothing like a bit of competition to get the juices flowing.

    Thats all for now my fellow Potters.

    Happy potting. :D:D

    just seen on the works website they have an electronic pot that counts how much is in it - £6.99. could be an idea for those wanting to know how much they have.

    These are in B&M at either £2.99 or £3.99
