creeps in very sheepishly.............................

hello everyone.Anyone remember me?

It's that time of year when I think about you all and rush back here.

Observer

Hi guys,

Welcome to everyone new, I'm impressed how the pages are adding up with tremendous speed!!

Been shopping today and came back with a £10 still in my purse, so I figured I hadn't spent it so I'd better save it. Folded it up into a wee tight square and popped it into the slot

I save into a brown box someone bought me and was thinking (when others posted about what they used) that I'm dead glad it is solid and I can't see all the money sat in there. Just imagine how tempted I would be if it was visable.....but its not so all is well :A although coppers are saved into a milk bottle which is obviously see through, but in their case I like seeing the size of the pile and I can never be bothered counting them till there is loads so they also won't get spent!

It would definitely be good if you came on more often ladsmadd, but why not bookmark it?? It's far easier then. You possibly only saw it the other night beacuse sparky & I have been bumping it up a lot so members see it - we hoped. At least it worked with you!

Also for the closing date try:

"Remember, remember pot ends 1st December"

AND for the next one:

"Remember, remember pot starts 2nd December"

I'm almost like Keats..Wordsworth and the like.... I missed me vocation and am off to bed before they take me away. :rotfl:

Sue x Anyone else wishing to join, please say the word, you're most welcome. :xmassmile

Hi everyone, newbie here, I'd love to join you !

My large coffee jar is nearly finished (might go and make a cuppa now just so that I can get my 'pot' ready ) and I've already got a few pennies I can put in.

I'd like to set a target of £300 (£100 for each of the kids) for next year's Xmas pressies .

This challenge is just what I need :beer:

Decluttering

Well after all that, it turns out that my mum had 5 £1 coins that she was able to swap me for my £5 note! So that has now gone in my sealed pot, along with the leftover change I found earlier today, that is an extra £6.15 in my pot this week

EDIT - I know what I'm saving for now! My sealed pot is now also known as my "10 Year Passport Fund". If I have some money left over it could also go towards my provisional driver's license but I don't know if I'll be wanting to learn to drive in a year, I've not got the motivation to do that at the moment. But it would be great to have a passport, it's crazy how much I miss out on without proof of identity

A tip perhaps for services rendered maybe, Georgiegirl.......:whistle::rotfl:;)

I'm going to have to render a lot of services to get to my £300 target, not that I'd mind after all, every penny counts, but the opportunity is a little thin on the ground at the moment.

Although I'm sure "wants pennies for her pot" would attract some interesting responses in a personal ad!!!!:eek:

SEASHELL

Just put my total on the other thread. Am going to aim for £500 for next year, no.626 this years SPC got me out of such a huuuuuuuuuuge hole when I got stuck :jso am aiming high for next year
