Please read through post 1as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge. Please pop your number on your sig, it helps so very much


This might just change you, janey183, some folk here never saved until they become Sealed Potters, I think also it's the collective part of it where we're all doing it together; it's far more encouraging. Just don't forget to SEAL it!!!

My pot is completely sealed - if it were easy to borrow money from it, I'd be doing it all the time. I can't properly see what's in there either, so less temptation.

Oh, I love the way you said that peaceandfreedom, such authority! Take note all those who haven't yet sealed theres!

I'm so pleased to read how much you're looking forward to opening it too p&f. :j

D'you know I'd never thought about it like that, but knowing sparky, I'll bet you've hit the nail on the head, jakes-mum!

Our sparky actually PAY :eek: you to go away, LC 2, that'll have to be re-thought surely as this is the sparky we're talking about int it! I'll bet he chains his poor DW to the place when he's out!!! :rotfl: That'll teach you to write rude things in your posts!

See what a mad house this is, janey...you still sure??!

Hi Can I join please. I have two pots for this year-one for Christmas and one for Charity. The Charity one is just small change. It will go to Dog's trust. I have most of my Christmas presents. My pot is for all the extras. I just have to buy for my Husband, Mum, Dog and Aunt. I love this forum. Keep up the good work!

Well done everyone.

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: Christmas day in one month!!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

Potting £10 today. Not potted much this week and away with my mum to Chester for the weekend Christmas shopping. I didn;t know anything about it as my mum and hubby have cooked it up between them.:)

I am a very lucky lady and am really looking forward to it.

Hopefully will get all of the presents I need to buy. I have made a start but still lots to do.

Have a great weekend everyone x:T:T:T

It's good to know ho much you love the Forum, marco1dog, I think we'd all agree that we do too as it's so much more than money, yet totally related, which gives it such a wonderful appeal. All the best with your pots.

Hi mumof3plusoh, you're a lucky lady indeed, well done with the £10er and enjoy the weekend Christmas shopping. I hope you're able to get all you need....me too!!!!!

It's so good to hear you're looking forward to the challenge, nanto3girls. Could I ask you to kindly pop your number on your signature for me? Thank you very much.

Ahhhh, that's so loving of your DH, jakes-mum, and if you win the bet anyway..it has to be you as the favourite in the race so far. Keep ahead.

Haven't a clue what DH's getting me....or IF anything. Don't worry about me sobbing away here, I'll manage somehow.

Time's ticking away folks and won't be long til Thursday...Christmas too!

jakes-mum
