Samtoby a good cry works every time, sending ((hugs)).:kisses3:

Jakes-dad well done on the new job.:beer:

Blushingrose don't worry, pot what you can when you can. You will be surprised as to how much the pennies amount to.;)

Everyone is doing so well and so many NSD too.:T:T
£2 pound for the pot tonight. Thought I was only going to manage £1 tonight as had 50p in my purse and I knew I had 50p in my coat pocket. Hay Ho found another £1 along with the 50p so deposited it in the tin with some new friends.:rotfl:

Have a great night everyone

Is there such a thing as desk kill?? Was cleaning out my desk and came across 14p, so of to the pot it went. Very slow on the potting front as am having to have a lot of nsd's due to a budget that is tighter than a badgers bum. Come on pay day I want to get potting!!!

Well if there is thats what I had today (21p's worth) I too am waiting for payday to get seriously potting.

This has now become part of my bedtime ritual,check this thread, check facebook, do a bit of comping on the mse competition boards, check this thread and check facebook. Only then can I shut down my laptop and head to bed haha!!

G'night potters, sweet penny saving dreams

Hi Sue, Please will you include me in the Sealed Pot Challenge, I've just been told that my fourth grandchild is on it's way so I need to start saving like mad..:eek: thanks, debsf1

Sue-UU

You're most welcome to join us, scotmumof3, miss.burden and debsf1! It's lovely to have you with us. Have fun saving. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 4 of page 1. Please read through post 1as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge.
* Please pop your number on your sig, it helps so very much.

debsf1, many congratulations on such a wonderful event, there's nothing quite like it as many of us here know all too well.

You are so well on the way with over £10 in your pot, welshone27, very well done.

Laughter is a good medicine, samtoby, so is crying as it's nature's way of relieving stress, good for you of giving in.:)

If ever anyone feels like they could sccreeaamm but can't because of family or neighbours, you still can do so - go to the bedroom, grab a pillow and bring it round your face and just scream into it as much as you like! See, no one else can hear and you've relieved your tension!

All the very, very best, supasick!

Just found a 2p in the middle of the kitchen floor. There is only me at home and the kids are in bed. It wasn't there when I mopped half an hour ago - maybe it dropped from heaven :eek:

Well scotmumof3 reckons it's inflation, DorsetGirl, sounds more like deflation to me....or a mucky mopper!!!!:rotfl: Joking honest!!!!

Call it deskkill, Gumpf, or call it what you like, I'd call it lucky and to be filed under "gains"! Don't worry, we all have slow times, but most of us are almost bound to get times that you're a teeny more flush then others, make the most of em Gumpf! :j

A great idea to pot what you didn't need to spend, ETO! Good for you in siezing the opportunity!

A whole £10 after in the pot after shopping etc today (yesterday)

After a goodnight's sleep everyone, have yourselves a really good day whatever you do.

Sue x

We're not doing great at this as money is so tight that we're spending the 5ps and copper cos we have to

If you have to use the change to live - that's what you have to do. I can remember being in a similar situation many years ago when the kids were small (they are now in their 40's) and it was January and the bills came in. Do what you have to do to get yourself straight no matter how long it takes and then try to save a litttle for next Christmas, try to get ahead of the game, after all, this is what this challenge is all about.
You'll get loads of support here, something not available in my younger days - keep posting/talking.

Potted about £1 in change but not exactly sure how much

Good morning everyone
Lost my voice over the last 2 days (some would say that's a good thing LC2/Jakes-mum! ) but I'm struggling on manfully

Popped my usual £2 into the pot last night, also another 5p tea room floor change from work.

It's rather wet here in Liverpool, the fine rain that soaks you right through , so anyone in the vicinity, take a brolly.

Have a great day everyone, stay safe & keep saving
