    My sons decorated an empty ice-cream tub for me yesterday and I have superglued and selotaped it (just in case one was not enough ;) lol). Let the savings commence hehehe.

    Have a lovely day.

    Just want to congratulate people on some great results!!!!

    I have two pots ready for the new challenge. One sealed for 50ps or less that will not be opened under ANY circumstances. And a jar for the shiny nuggets where we are banking what we don't spend out of our weekly budget for petrol and childcare (school holidays you know ;) ). However can't guarantee we won't need this so to begin with I've labelled it our emergency fund. If all goes well though I'll be transferring it across so I too could be a Sparky millionaire :T

  • Just to update you all - my excitment is slowly turning to frustration as my SP is in a secret depository in the bedroom and my lovely DH is still in bed. :eek:

    Anyway I have decided to surprise him with the pot later today as I don't think he knows anything about it (not 100% sure though). It will be lovely to share with him :smileyhea (aw bless) and make a change to have something good to open rather than an unexpected bill or unplanned expense.

    Well done to all the people who have declared their totals :T

    Catch up with you all later.

    Morning all,

    Firstly, a huge thank you to everyone here, especially
    Sue and Sparky for their fantastic work on this thread. It has spurred me on to start decluttering my home, and the cash has gone into my pot. I have had to bank a couple of times throughout the year as I didn't like the cash lying around, so my grand total this year is:

    ...........Ta dah ..........


    :T:T:T £1223.30 :T:T:T
    I've had the massive wanties forever for a Kitchenaid Artisan Food Mixer, but I couldn't justify the expense. I have now just replaced the 100+ items I have sold with this beauty, which was delivered this week! Soooooooo excited!!!!!!!

    So, thanks again and GOOD LUCK to everyone opening their pots today.

    I'm now ready to start again today with SP5
