    Ok what have I done to dd now lol she has put £25 in HER sealed tin lol which is every bit of her birthday money what a good girl she is so now shes in competition with me :rotfl: whos going to have the most by 1st of December the race is on so I got a MSE in the making :money:

    DH has been teaching DD about roadkill for quite a while now. His reasoning is she's closer to the ground (she's 3) !!!!! but she is actually really good at it now. She sees pennies that DH and I miss. Those ones go in her pot and she loves it
    Goals for February
    Declutter 2/50

    Overpayments £0/£200
  • 60p to the pot for me today (all roadkill :eek:) making a grand total of £8.51 :D

    I liked the road kill idea had to read it twice before understood that it meant findng the pennies as you walk along.

    Decluttering....I want a word with you! :mad: You gave caracara a really lovely welcome then it all went downhill with "It doesn't matter if your pot is sealed or not?????! :eek: :silenced: Oh yes it does!!! What's the name of our Challenge...huh???? :angry: I know you wouldn't dream of being tempted, but some folk just might be so sealing it's a great deterrent and adds to the excitement. It'll be the naughty step with NO sweeties for you next time!!! ;)
    *Off to the naughty step to do some serious backpeddling* Sorry Sue, I thought the "S" in "SPC" was for "Super Sue's Pot Challenge"! Please don't take my sweeties away, I'll be good I promise!!


    25p in the pot from me today and 1p from my mum, with promise of the contents of the bedside table to follow :happyhear

    You little devil you, Decluttering, why I do believe you're taking the something out of me with the "Super Sue's Pot Challenge"!!!! :naughty: Ok just this once I'll be kind to you....but any more times and I'll be eating the sweeties all by myself.:EasterBun :rotfl::p
    An excellent amount saved, squeeeek, be very proud of that. :j

    Very well done for your little one, starnac!

    A very good start off, caracara! With all you said about the road kill makes me think I'd best check to make sure what I typed on post 1 of the first page doesn't need a manual to work out! :shocked:

    A great day for everyone, folk, be proud of such great achievements!

    Have a lovely day and do be careful of the winds and rain folks, please.
