"Sealed Pot Challenge 5"

  • I potted 24p last night. Don't think I will be doing any spending today maybe except for some petrol for the car.

    Can I ask a bit of advise please? I am doing a few challenges which means not all my change goes to my SPC. So £1 a day goes into a different pot, £2 coins going into another (well technically they go into my SP) but it's a different challenge if you know what I mean. Do you all keep your challenges seperate or would you include them in your seal pot one. I know it's just personal perference but just want to know how you all do it. Thanks xx

    I'm keeping my £2 coins separate. I'm not counting as I go along so the £2 pot and the sealed pot totals will be a lovely surprise!

    £4.75 today in change. I have no idea how much is in the pot, Hope its close to £50.00
    It sits close to my computer - where does your sit?

    Beside my bedside cabinet in our bedroom :)

    Glad you're feeling better Sue-UU, keep resting and keep warm :grouphug:

    I wasn't expecting to pot anything today, I spent the morning cleaning and washing three loads of the dogs bedding (fleas :eek:) and the afternoon baking at Mum's. Then when OH came home we (he) moved the furniture and vacuumed everywhere and found a very dusty 2p under the bed :j I grabbed it and potted it before he had time to argue :j:j

    I hope you all have an enjoyable weekend :)

    Hi Sue-UU, welcome back, glad you're feeling better now.

    I haven't actually put anything in the pot yet but there is £2. 61 waiting in my purse to see if it's allowed in if it doesn't need to be spent.

    Hugs to all.

  • Yay, Sue is back. Glad you are feeling a little better. Make sure you look after yourself.:)

    Not potted all week as been working on DD1 birthday. Cost me a small fortune and still have 5 mates here after cinema and pizza. They are all playing a game up stairs so bless them they have not been any trouble.

    Must do a bank update to see what I can afford to pot this month.

    Trouble in our house is that Feb is DD1 birthday, March is DS and April DD2 birthday. Not to mention my mum and dad in Jan and Feb and 10 days between them. Very expensive few months at the start of the year.


    Will hopefully pot some tomorrow.
    Have a great night everyone

    We have expensive months before Christmas here. DD3 & DD4's b-days are in November and DD1 is in December. :eek: Should have planned it a little bit better really. :rotfl:


    17p in today. Not a lot, but better than nothing!
