"Sealed Pot Challenge 5"

quintwins

i decided this challenge isn't for me it would seem i'm not comftable with large amounts of cash in the house, i took any notes out of my pot before xmas and i've just counted up all the change i have £33 in poundcoins (which i've threw back in the pot to use for the kids dinner money) and £5.14 in change, good luck to you all i would do the virtual sealed pot but i already do something similar because i'm saving for a house

That sounds brilliant, Crunchy Nutter, very nifty way to get a good pot. BTW, the 50p isn't roadkill, it's just gains after not having cleaned too well!!!! :rotfl:Cheeky I know, but couldn't resist now could I!!

In my defence, it was in a corner, between the edge of a carpet tile and a cupboard. :cool:

Last time I looked there I found a quid :T

Inspired by my 50p find, I've spent the last 15 minutes crawling round looking in every other corner, and found 2p! Took me 5 minutes to extract one of them from it's crack with a ruler, a bent paperclip and a screwdriver but it is now safely incarcerated and will be in my new, improved pot this evening! :j

Hi
Just found this forum, could I join please? I was thinking of starting with an achievable £100, well I hope it is. All these forums are certainly keeping me on the straight & narrow at the mo!
Thanks Mandy

Welcome MS13
Sue will be along later to allocate you a number, so start saving right now as you're part of SPC, so enjoy the banter & enjoy saving

Potted another £1.32 today. It's only day 3 and I have lost count of how much is in there already. My oh has his sealed pot made now, from a biscuit tin with a slot chopped into the top and covered in brown tape, so the competition commences! Can't wait to see how much we manage to save between us! no roadkill found today, much to my disappointment! Lol!

Found a 20p piece in DH's Gym Bag - most of my change seems to be coming from him at the moment, albeit without him knowing :j

Have put in £8.39 into my pot today. Change from postage and paying a bill.

Hope everyone is keeping safe due to the bad weather.

I have been doing this on my own for a while now, I tend to save for the dreaded month of July when all of my imediate family have birthdays, I have joined a few challenges so far and think this will be great motivation to keep feeding my pot (in this case pig count me in!

skea56 Did you mean you were saving £5 a week (£250) or £5 a day? No worry at all, but if you could just let me know in case your Target needs altering.

Hi there Sue, sorry I meant £5 per day, so my total is still ok - which reminds me, I must update my sig to give my current total!!
