  • Everyone has made a flying start to their new pots - it's quite addictive isn't it?

    I got an unexpected 15 quid a couple of days ago so I've put that in the pot - luverly stuff. I have sealed the pot but haven't covered it yet so I can see what's in it - which is not good. Must get on with doing that.

    However, it has already reached the stage of new coins falling on top of paper money and other coins - hooray! :j
  • Can I please join this challenge too? I have a few spare biscuit tins lying around that I was going to throw out, but I'll turn one of them into a sealed pot and start potting those pennies.
    If I give myself a target of £200, that should be easily achieved I hope.

  • I've been wandering the shops again this morning. Spent very little but the spare change has gone in the pot.

  • Morning all

    Hope everyone had a lovely Christmas. I definitely ate far too much and spent too much. Got to keep a better track next year. (i think i say that every year)

    Not much potting for me since about Xmas eve. But £1.73 yesterday and £1.10 today. Hoping for a few no spend days over the next few days so will have nothing to pot.

    Definitely not going to the sales, i find it such a waste of time and money. Just don't want to be tempted to buy something i dont want and need just because it says it's in the sale.

    Have a good day all.
