    Just found this site, they have a sale on the pots atm
    http://www.campusgifts.co.uk/
    Are they available anywhere else more cheaply? (Mind you, the normal size 'only' holds £200 apparently.

    I haven't made anything paper mache since infants school lol

    It cost me nothing as I get the metro free and had pva lying around the house. Not that impressive but it works :) Although my real pot is a liquitabs box as it smells lovely when putting coins into it :)

    Hello - #1380 here.

    I have just counted my last tin's amount and I had £478.36 in it, so I am going to try and beat that this time - though I need to go and purchase a pot first, which will be my mission on Friday.
    Pay off all my debts before Christmas 2015 #165.
  • Hi fellow potters,

    I hope you are all having a great week so far.

    I have managed to pot my daily £3.00. Today I went a bit adventurous and potted a £20.00 note!:rotfl:I have got a £2 coin, 2 x 20p and 2 x 5p. Potting them in a minute lol and my sons are going to pot 7 x 1p and 5 x 2p in theirs lol.

    From tomorrow I am no longer buying a weekly bus pass, I will just take 1 bus to the station (£1.10) then I will walk the other half of the journey (about 20min, slow pace.. listening to music and enjoying the scenery ;)) and my husband has commited to pick me up every night, I finish at 7pm. Which means I will spend £4.40 instead of £15.00 per week and can pot the 10.60 :rotfl:. I am going potty for potting lol

    Have a lovely week everyone x

    Would you add me please? No total to aim for, just putting away all the spare coins and roadkill I find.
    Thank you. :D

    ooooooooh, these are the sort of pot you can get in Clinton Cards aren't they? You don;t have to break them?

    :eek::eek::eek::eek: wash your mouth out with soap!! you NEVER break a terramundi!! they're so pretty why would anybody commit such an atrocious act!! :eek::eek::eek:

    Pair of tweezers and a knife! Ooooooo Sue-UU will be after you with her golf clubs if you take a hammer to it!

    Yes you can buy them in clintons, and I know they had some reduced down in my local that they were trying to get rid of (not my name :()

    Look on ebay and charity shops though they are going for a premium at the moment due to christmas, look late jan/early feb they should be cheaper then
