  • Hi everyone, how lovely to join in again!

    Have to say ,when I joined early this year, I didn't expect to be able to save the amount that I did, and when I counted it up was speechless that I managed that amount. This year my sealed pot has given me a new washing machine when the last one died. A new fence , the last one was knocked down by a thief running through it. Most importantly, [my only target at the beginning ]was to save the amount of money I needed to buy myself a lurcher puppy. So I have achieved this and more ,just by committing to put money regularly in my sealed pot.

    A very big thank you , and have already started the new pot!
