"Sealed Pot Challenge 4"

dreamdreamer

And I'm off! The mum bought round my terramundi pot today (years old, never used it!) and I stuck £8 in it to keep me on track for my £365. :j

Also shoved in some loose change that I gathered from round the house - total of about £1.20

counted up bits of shrapnel that was left over after opening day and changed it at the bank do that's £8 into the pot and 1p roadkill:D

*deep breath*

£6 in £2 coins into the not-so-sealed-pot.
£2.50 in 50p's into the not-so-sealed-pot.
£1.40 in other change into my Sealed Pot.

Not bad for one day. Tomorrow nothing probably!!

Quick question about terrimundi's.....

How can you open them without smashing them/get the money out? I have seen a cowprint one (which is clearly destined to be mine!!) but will never want to break it. Ever!

Like the joke sparky!! :rotfl:

No monies for sealed pot for me today as I did have some change after my lunch today but left it in my uniform so will have to wait till tomorrow! - but I start the virtual sealed pot thread and banked £15.64 so I guess that'll do instead!

Hello all!

I went shopping today during my lunch break to get the last few bits I needed for 2 hampers I'm doing for my stepsons. Each time I paid for something I put the change into my coat pocket, not my purse. I've just emptied my pocket into my jar (omitting the hanky, mints & shopping list!), but didn't count it. I think there must have been at least a fiver though, so am quite pleased with that.

Thank you Sue for the spelling correction!! :T I've just looked it up in my dictionary (the Chambers ) and its in there spelt both ways! It says its a colloquialism from the 1960s. I never knew that!

Anyhow, keep up the good work peeps & enjoy your evening (whats left of it) x

I feel so jealous of all of you with your lovely Terramundi pots - I would love one as they look so pretty but Terracotta sets my teeth on edge and just thinkinga bout touching one gives me the shivers.

Hi FF

I've just counted mine but had to sit quietly with nail file or flat knife will do and poke it up the hole it will fall out a bit at a time, sat and done this as I didn't want to break mine either.

:jthats genius! never thought of putting them in there and i usually get £20 each divvy up off to throw my ones from november in my pot

I have just found a £1 in hubbys tool box (i reacon his change calls to me as i only cleared it out this morning :eek: im the loose change psychic lady :eek:) trying to decide whether to 'release' it from his hidey hole or leave it as it might be his tea money for work

hmmm if its still there tomorrow i might 'accidently' let it slip into the pot . . .

no small change for me today, so felt guilty not dropping a coin in the jar so in a £1 coin went..... that feels better!!
