"Sealed Pot Challenge 5"

mumof3plusoh

Hello Newbies and welcome to the family.;)

Went to watch the wedding this morning. What a beautiful bride and groom, they looked so happy, bless them. The weather is lovely and sunny here in Cheshire although a bit windy. Helen the bride said to me that she can't believe that it is December!

Didn't get anything new to wear yesterday or today but did manage to get nearly all the family Christmas cards and wrapping paper for next year and a few presents cheap for birthdays coming up!:D Very MSE of me :rotfl:

Expensive place tonight so going to drive. Think all my friends are as all said the same:rotfl:

Potting £2 today. Have a great day everyone.

I am going to search the house room by room for pennies. I will have enough money to buy a sofa

Hi all! Managed to pot £20 today as I used a voucher to buy something that I was going to buy anyway. Think somehow I've managed to do better in the last month than I did in 6 months last year!

Also going to post my savings which I am working on as a way of paying off the mortgage.

susiejq, not too sure what you mean about the savings for your mortgage. If it's savings your put in the bank then they can't be included in the SPC as it wouldn't be fair to others. If you're saving up through the year then putting it in the bank or paying it off your mortgage then that's fine. Have a read through the 1st post on Page 1 and you'll see what's accepted. All the best.

pinkcrafter, don't forget to seal that tin!

Hi everyone! I hope you've ALL had a wonderful Christmas and really enjoyed yourselves. DH & I had a gorgeous time with all the family, it couldn't have been better. :j

I'm keeping them till next year, stapling some baubles to the front, getting myself some charity slippers and a lovely tank top. Then I'm going to wake her up with a bit of lovely sexy male pole dancing

Oh my giddy aunt gert, nu1isit?, what do you expect us gals to do with that image for a WHOLE year?!!!! BTW, Mr Tumble needs that tracheotomy sealed a bit quick!! :eek:

Good to see you at last, Willow, I'll now look forward to adding your Total to the Grand Total! Please pop it on the old thread, the link of which is here

Many congratulations on the arrival of your baby, niece, wannabee_in_credit, though very sorry to hear about the car bill.:( Concentrate on the good though, far better.

So pleased you had a good time, sparky, though a shame about DW having to work on Boxing Day. Look out for that LC 2...even in the gents!!! :eek:

samtoby - I see you haven't yet up your SPC No on your siggy, could you kindly do so please?. Thanks.

I couldn't agree more, Jackies, a cracking Grand Total!! I wonder about next year - should be even better all being well. :grinheart

Raspberrysauce, your Target is now updated to a £1000, good luck in getting there!

I'd definitely cover that pot, peaceandfreedom, as it sounds a bit too risky otherwise.

It sounds as though you could do with making one or two New Year resolutions, ETO!

I'm so pleased the weather was kind to the Bride & Groom today, mumof3plusoh. They must be as 'mad' as DH & I as we wed on 8th January...when it snowed too! It made my day though even more special!!!

Hi jakes-mum, don't worry as it's amazing what you can achieve in 3 weeks, you'll be alright.

Hello all

Got given a nice purse for my Christmas from my MIL, had a shiny pound coin and some coppers in it, so I potted it along with the dregs of my old purse, £4.50, so far so good.

Have a good week all x
