  • Brought a book from the charity shop where I work £1.75 down from £19.99. Then I got a 25% staff discount so I got it for £1.30. The 25% off went into the pot

  • £4.98 to add to the pot. I know it seems I usually put large amounts in, this is because I save my change up (i.e. forget to empty my purse) until my bag starts hurting my shoulder :rotfl:!
  • just put £10 in change in my pot :D.. it's annoying me that it's on 99.50 so far.. if only I had another 50p to go in it :P lol

    A very warm welcome, maccymum, it's lovely to have you with us. biggrin.gif Enjoy yourself saving. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 4 of page 1. Please read through post 1 as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge.

    *Please pop your numbers on your sigs, it helps a lot.

    sparky, that really did sound a wonderful holiday, plenty of memories for you both. A shame about the OT, but you did really well so I guess you're certainly not grumbling.

    Thanks Sue! We worked out it should take 11 months :eek: but we want to get there as quick as possible. My sealed pot received a huge boost yesterday when OH gave me his change pot to add to mine. He's had it for years and doesn't really add to it and can't be bothered to bank it. He thinks its got over £40 in it!

    Good for you OH, Janey!!! The 11 months you're reckoning on to save up will soon fly by and you'll soon be in your OWN home!! :love:
    I guess I can see the point of the ID, jakes-mum, they'll be needing them anyway so why not. Well done with your £1, just be careful of these lil old ladies though, that'll be us some day! :eek:

    You're doing so well, Callie, keep going.

    oooh lucky you, RedGoose, I'd love to go dancing, but DH isn't rally into "prancing about" :mad: You enjoy yourself and do one for me each time - please. :( I can't complain tho as he's a treasure in every other way. :kisses2:

    You be careful, toria, you'll be doing yourself a mischief if you're not careful. How's that little darling of yours? No, not DH...the little treasure :A

    Ah well, that's £12 in the pot for me, not doing too badly.
    Have a super evening, everyone and a wonderful Sunday.


    Sue x

    Boot sale done today and managed to take more than I thought. It's all been thrown into the pot, although not thoroughly counted as I really want the surprise. I know a £20 and a £10 went in though.

    Also found 5p by the ticket machine, so snuffled for the pot too!
  • A further £2.11 today. So that's probably me til next week though. I might try and throw the odd pound in if I can this week. Still looking out for my first ever road kill. People are just too tight around here. :D

    Have a good week all.
