    Flying visit, just finished packing for my trip to Birmingham tomorrow with work. Thought I should empty my purse and now have 56p to add to pot 1 and £4 to go in pot 2.

    See you all in a few days.
  • Put on a coat tonight to nip out in (really cold tonight with the wind) and found 40p in loose change. In the pot for me.;)

    Morning everyone
    Just spent a couple of lovely days with my DW, went to a Christening in Shrewsbury omn Sunday, stayed overnight and then spent all day Monday on our own catching up and recharging the batteries for the next stage of overtime.

    My usual £2 into the sealed pot, plus a load of change.

    Sue thanks for the mention in your earlier post and sorry I haven't been around much x

  • Hi all, Just over £300 in since my last post, including 57p in road kill! I was really impressed with finding a 50p coin that somebody didn't pick up!

    Lovely sunny blustery day here today, so sheets out on the line!

    The work tin has had a few assorted small ones added to my work tin since I got home.

    Hi, another newbie joiner here. I'm off sick from work today and have been mooching round the boards. Been meaning to sort a sealed box/container for ages so todays the day.

    I've decided to use this images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ0T60YfK22I4bMivM2DdQZrGeBo8jwk0Udxbyamc3ZYYZdzRQxtQ8ZtSyS as it is in the cupboard and not currently in use.


    So whilst I'm feeling a bit grot, I'm going to busy myself with collecting what I can find over the next few hours and fill her up (hopefully).

    Hoping to raise £100.

  • Have added .53p to Sealed Pot today, running total £2. May not be the big save I was hoping for for this Christmas!!
    Am caught between wanting to have NSD and spending so I can have change for my SP or seeing what I can buy that is on special offer! But as DD wanted some money for salads etc I bought couple of bits from local store - hoping tomorrow will be a NSD !!

    can i join?! i have yet to make a pot but i have a jack daniels bottle full to the top with 5p's (the only coins that will fit in it!).

    I'm saving for a 3DS for my wife for her birthday in January as she loves her normal DS. Thats about £130 needed! no idea how much i currently have but i guess thats kind of the point!

    After that i'll be saving for christmas each year, the challenge will be for us both to save then split the fund in half and buy as many presents as possible!
