Hi All, missed loads of pages as been busy working and painting the hall! Hope eveyone is ok.
I have put some coins aside this week to put in my tin BUt note to self for next week I must put them straight in the tin otherwise I end up spending and giving them to the kids. Managed to keep £6 to add to tin, mixture of coins but am so glad I am still adding! I have started to think about whether I want this for xmas or for a holiday or towards my new kitchen the old one is falling down around me! Need to pay credit card off before a new kitchen ;-)
Have a lovely weekend allLife happens when you are busy making other plans

My sealed pot ended up being completely full today after I added £2 odd so I had to count some of it up in order to change it up to make space. Changed up £60 or so which has given me enough space to keep saving £155.19 in there currently which is amazing! Sealed Pot Challenge (1031) 2012 = 148.17

Not doing too well on sealed pot challenge at moment - but doing well on NSD, which obviously limits the amount of change I get.
I didn't think I would be putting loads in at the beginning of the year as my work is seasonal - so hopefully from Easter onwards will be able to increase amount significantly.
Until then will just plod away with the odd £1/50p0 -
Hi everyone
Just a few bits of shrapnel again for me, although might be able to sneak one (or two) of DH's pound coins that are currently sitting on the kitchen table - he'll never know!

Have a good weekend all.
Yes ... this is the link https://www.newvistalive.com/portal
they're very good ... surveys are between £1 & £5 each (roughly £1 per 5 minutes spent on the survey) and although it takes a while to make £50 it's a nice healthy amount to work towards xxSmall business owner 🧵 Ex MSE comper 🏆 Student loan repayer 💴 Romanian dog rescuer 🐕 Hopefully a cost of living survivor 🤞🏻0
