    one whole dollar going into the pot tonight :T and I was so sure that this week was going to be my week.:rotfl:

    Morning all, hope everyone is in fine fettle this chilly Friday morning. *brrrrrrrrr*

    I've hardly had anything to deposit into my tin this week, but bless hubbles, he did pop about £7.00 in it the other day, (I've taught him well!) and last night I added in another £3.00. Yay!!! It had been just shy of a week since I was last able to add anything. My poor pot kept looking at me longingly wanting to be fed, but I hadn't got a brass farthing to my name until yesterday. Pot did a little happy dance as I fed it my coins. :j:rotfl:

    Am off to do the weekly food shop in a little while. So, I'm hoping I can add some more coinage, or even a note or two to the pot later this morning!
    Hope everyone has a splendiferous Friday! x:beer:

    Morning potters,
    Brrrrrr! it's a chilly one out there this morning, 0.56p went into the pot last night, I did plan on another £1.50, however DD1 wanted some spends for youth club Grrrrr! so poor terramundi went hungry.
    It certainly has been slim pickings for the pot this past week or so, Yesterday was DD1's 10th birthday and I put on an after school Tea party on, which cost a small fortune in junk food, but she had a ball.
    Not a £2 coin in sight just lately, mind you, I'm quite thankful as at the moment I'm sooooo broke I would begrudge having to put it in the tin:rotfl:Have a lovely day all potters and stay warm Brrrrrr!:eek:

    Morning all, gosh this thread moves so fast :p Anyway, not been doing very well but I got a £33 refund from my car insurance, now I really want to put this money in my pot to give it a good boost!! Will make a decision today :D
  • 85p in the pot yesterday - a slow week but there should be some more over the weekend when I put the remaining weekly money in there.

    Morning all,

    Just potted £2.95 in coins left in my wallet at the end of the week :j My bottle has done very well for itself this week which is a good thing because I just did my budget for next month and it's going to be tight! My rent has gone up due to oil bills and I'm not going to get much for overtime considering it was the Christmas hols last month!

    Oh well, off to peruse daytime tv. I would put my feet up if my sore stomach would allow it :(
