Evening fellow potters...I am sad to report that my pot has been raided by OH for carpark change and a few £10 notes...Grrrr...I need a better pot. I had a Royal wedding biscuit tin sealed with sellotape...any good ideas for a better more sturdy pot anyone? I am rubbish at papier mache so a bit more simple would be good Thanks all...I just put in 13p from my purse to restart the tin...

What about one of the tins from poundland, you cant get into it.

Ahh thank you Sue-UU, yes he must have felt he'd walked into the deals aisle at Tesco when he got the letter :rotfl: I feel even sorrier for him when someone comes up with the idea of a re-union party so he can meet everyone (im not bringing it up!! :eek:) with all the brothers/sisters their kids and the kids kids he's going to feel like he's bitten off more than he can chew :rotfl:.

Hi there everyone

Its a late one I should be in bed. Anyway I forgot to pop change into the Rosie last night (sunday) and tonights courtesy of fat club.

Thats a total of £5.23 for Rosie tonight (£3.82 from WW) and x3 £2 coins for the hols pot.

Hope you have all had a good weekend and here's to a good week ahead.

Jakes-mum now thats what I call surprise, surprise...Cilla will be pleased.

Hello to all the newbies just in case I forgot to say before. Happy potting and welcome to the mad house.

afternoon all,
wow its been a while since i posted in here.

just thought i would post a quick update,
i was originally saving up for an ipad but at the weekend i broke my sealed pot and counted up all the cash.
i have since put it in the bank and its now going towards to my CC debt.

as i mentioned i did want to treat myself but i honestly am determined to pay this CC debt off in a few months.
i did manage to save a total of £264.73 since around January time, so that should hopefully bring my CC to around £1180 once i make the payment.

i will be sealing it back up and starting to add cash again, as its a great place to put all my loose change and not spend it on rubbish.
so heres to my sealed pot challenge part 2!

i will try and post here more often this time:).

finally, hope all is keeping well, and lets hope for some nice weather again soon!!:D
