"Sealed Pot Challenge 4"

OKay I confess, I opened my pot :doh: it was pretty much full and I knew there was a fair bit in there which I didn't want lying around the house. Anyway, I'd guessed about £100 was there and there was about £200!!!!! I've not paid all of it in, just £180 and kept the rest back in my pot.
Hopefully my signature has updated properly and I'll still continue to saveI need another £70 and that'll be Christmas sorted so although I'm a bit annoyed I opened my pot at least I can get some interest on it and it's safely tucked away in my savings account all ready for Crimbo :T
Now lets have a look at what changed I've got in my purse to carry on clunking.....Sealed Pot Challenge Member no. 048

Well, I am off on my Jar holiday tomorrow, and I am delighted to say since last October I saved £673! My share of the Chalet and petrol = £150 leaving me £523 spending money far to much for a weeks holiday Lol. It's a really nice feeling to have more than needed, and no debt. Although it's my money! saving via the jar it feels as though it's a free holiday, and all I did was put my lose change into the jar at the end of the day so on my return I will continue to do so ready for my next Jar holiday.
Thats brilliant Viv Have a lovely holiday and happy sending.:D
There's hope for me yet, cant wait to open my tin even more now.;)Footiemad:footie: 2013 - SPC no.1147...Keeep potting!!
