Hope you have all had a good weekend!!
Not much to report for the last couple of weeks. What with a long month (5 weeks) and lots of birthdays there's not been much left at the end of the week.
But I've got some change in my (new) purse, so at least £5 will be going in the pot today.
Have a good week y'all

Hello Sparky,
Things not too bad in our neck of the woods. Kas visited on saturday afternoon and raided my cake box!!!
She is actually doing well with her sealed pots. I think she should change her name from "Gettingbetter" to "Gotbetter". This site and all you wonderful people have made such a difference to her life. Thankyou .

£22.20 in my pot at the moment, so I'm over 10% of the way there at the moment
about to put a £1 in my pot though, as I almost splurged on a magazine today, but I resisted, so I'm popping in the £1 that I could have easily spent! so will be £23.20 woo! 0 -

:wave: Evening everyone

Fed Rosie £4.28 tonight, courtesy of fat club.
Alas, the weight has gone up this week
must try harder, a busy week and late nights do not help. But being positive I am still a lot lighter than I could have been had I not been going
. Forgot to pick up my winnings before I left work tonight, all 80p but it will be potted tomorrow night.
A lot of thank you message o here today, and I echo that. I wouldn't be still popping on and potting without the support on here. So thanks from me to everyone too.
Esmer Well done on what you managed to save. I hope you get some MSE bargains for your new home and thats after you have bought your shiny new wardrobes
Look forward to seeing you back saving soon. Good luck and hope you are very happy in your new home.
Thats all folks
