A stunning 60p today :j...shockingly, no roadkill
. It seems to have dried up! Maybe I can create a magnetic shoe (of sorts), that specifically attracts coins :rotfl:. That'd be great, I wonder if I'd end up having feet like those old fashioned penny slot machines in the arcades (the ones that pushed the coin across a surface) :rotfl::D:rotfl:.

Evening everyone,
It must be a week since I last posted, this ruddy cold won't go, one day I feel fine and could take on the world the next I'm knackered and coughing for England.
Last week not much went into the tin, I did shopping online so didn't have cash on me. Today I've been into town so put £2 in the tin and found another bag of copper in the wardrobe.2011 Sealed Pot Challenge #1238 hoping for £250 ~ saved £743.32

I had to go to the cashpoint over the weekend, but then chucked the change into SP rather than keep it in my wallet.
probably just shy of a tenner in this weekendSealed pot challange no: 3390 -
Not put anything in my pot today as I've not spent anything so not received any change!
Just waiting for my number then I will put it on my signature.

Still having trouble adding coins during the week (mainly because of not spending any money!) but I'm doing well at the weekend! Already looking forward to opening the pot at the end of the year!
What I love about this challenge is that it's making me really think about what I spend my money on. I would normally spend spare change on chocolate, cheap cosmetics, a coffee from Starbucks, but so far it's all gone in the pot!
Not sure what I want to spend my money on at the end. Possibly an ereader - not a Kindle though, you can't borrow library ebooks on that!Sealed Pot Challenge Number 1225

Well, my girly day was a bit of a flop because I felt soooo unwell all day, typical because I'm NEVER ill usually. :mad:
I made it through lunch by loading myself up with painkillers, then a few shops but I was so hot and nauseous I felt like I was going to pass out so I had to come home and hole up in bed. £3 in pot though, change from the bus fare. Feeling a bit better for some sleep, chicken noodle soup, and hot water bottle time.DEBT FREE 3rd Sept 2011

Walked to and from work today, about 5 miles and found no roadkill. Sparky, did you walk my route today :rotfl: You always find roadkill
Didn't buy a chocolate bar on my way home so 87p in my pot today.
