"Sealed Pot Challenge 5"

little_sweetie

Well, yesterday I went to buy a sealed pot for the challenge but found them to be quite pricey and I refuse to pay at least £4 -£5 for an ordinary moneybox (progress already you see ) I rooted through the cupboards to see what I can use and found a cardboard tube with a few biscuits in. Perfect! Of course I had to eat 2 of them to get the rest into another tin but sacrifices must be made :rotfl: Started it off with 50p but I think I'll go to town on the village bus next week and save the 80p parking fee (it only pays for an hour anyway) Here we go! :j

Another £3 odd in today, change from DD's theatre group class fee as I had to send her with a £20 note as there's no loose cash in the house any more, for some reason........:p

just been to tesco, very upset as they wouldnt accept my co-op money off vouchers so I had to pay £9 extra :eek: :eek: only saved about £15 BUT got 2 x £2 coins in my change plus 97p in shrapnel all in my lovely pot

Dont you love the way we all jump to the defence of our thread when we feel it threatened Its very hard to expalin to outsiders why we do this, Dh has come round, I think after last years total even mum has realised the benefits (still working on her getting a tin :rotfl:) But I think its not just the potting that keeps me here its all my friends that live in my computer I do giggle at peoples posts, feel sad when someones had bad news and pleased when I read about a new job after redundancy or a baby etc and no interest on my savings would make it worth leaving SPC

Decided I would only pot the gold and silver ones so it's a bit easier in December so I counted my change jar up yesterday and changed it at the PO for a shiney £2 coin. And when I went up to my bedroom to pot it, I spotted 50p on the floor so that went in too! Also got DTD back on an item Tescos had overcharged me £3 on, so the £3 went in too :j
