Just took £10 out of my pot to pay for my lunch with the girls tomorrow meaning I don't need to take it out the bank. Does this count?
I've also decided to do the sealed pot challenge with 2 pots. One for 10p and under, the other for 50p and £2 coins.
So far I have £1.24 which is left over from emptying the pot earlier.
Also added another 6 items to eBay. I now have 11 on there and will add more later.0 -

Personally for me, no, it wouldnt count. I only count money MADE and money saved from coupons eg; Tesco vouchers as it's effectivly free money. But this is a personal challenge and each one of us does it differently so do what makes you happy!£20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**0 -

Congrats on the first class degree! :j! That in itself could be moneysaving, as if you want to go for a masters you're much more likely to get funded!
£10 found today walking DD home from swimming pool. The last time I found a note in the street was the last time i did this challenge :rotfl:!
