  • Just checking in - potted £2 yesterday after greengrocers, and I something like £2.50 a few days before that. I think I must have potted at least £10 in January which is more than I was expecting. :j

  • Put £1 in on Friday - I bought my collegue a drink from the shop on my card and he gave me the cash to pay me back so it went straight in my pot! And another £2.58 went in yesterday - change from shopping.

    Still no roadkill but I keep looking!

    I hope your OH is OK little_sweetie. Hospitals are such miserable places and then you get a huge parking fee, it makes me mad! :mad: :mad::mad: Our nearest big hospital doesn't even get much revenue from the parking which seems ridiculus.

    I'm dropping in to pot £1.50 change left over from my budget 'week' or the last few days of January. I'm going to stay in today as I'm feeling a little bit sore after going out for lunch yesterday!

    I've got no idea how much I've potted so far but my bottle has a nice pile of shiny coins in the bottom so I'm very excited about November :) Everyone has done so well this month :T:T

    Do people put notage in their pots?

    Hello potters. I haven't been on for ages as I have been trying very hard to have NSDs, which means no money for the pot! However I did have a night out on Friday, for which I'd set aside £40, and only spent £33. So £7 in the pot. I then found another £1 in a coat pocket which has also gone in. :T

    Found another 15p lying around the house so that has gone in my small change pot as well.

    Hope everyone is doing ok. I have yet to figure out how to have NSDs but also keep topping up my pot, but for now trying to get the Overdraft down and change my spending habits, so I think the NSDs are winning :o
    0% card was £1126.91 / Now £1502.37

    AFD March 2/15 NSD March 2/11 :T
