"Sealed Pot Challenge 4"

Oh you're all so lovely - thanks for all the warm welcomes!!
Well, technically I have been saving since Jan - but the pot was not sealed (oh dear!). By later this afternoon it will be. So as not to spoil the supprise for myself I'm not going to count what I have saved so far - but I am going to weigh it. Gives me a starting weight - right:)
So between now and opening the pot I need to have gained as much weight as possible:D To help me in this task I went to MrT today and bought 4boxes of 11's bars on DTD:rotfl:
Did my weigh-in, 2lb 9 3/4oz of 20p's - then the battery ran out!
So, have no idea as to how much the rest of it weighs - oh well!
Am going to keep 20p's seperate as my 'grand canyon flight fund' the rest will be for assorted treats/ essential spends etc.
ooops - did I do that!!!!!Scrappie

Peeks through the door.
Can I join in please, Im (sort of) well behaved, and can bring a cute baby for cuddles.
I dont have a total in mind, but would like to save a bit for my little boys 1st Birthday in October (about £150 would be nice )
Am going to go and sort out several jars now (50p, 20p,10p,2p, and 1p)
Going to make my little man happy on his special day, cant wait
