Although I very rarely post on the thread I have been putting money in my sealed pot.
I have just finished counting my savings so the my total for 2012 is

£206.11 (my no is 287)

Please include me for Sealed Pot 6 2013

Thanks WER

MuffinTops

Pot counted and I have a total of £521.70

Thank you so much for helping me achieve this. I can't do it in 2013 as all spare change needs to go on mortgage OP's. But ...... I will be back and recommending this thread a lot!

Keep counting everyone!

I'm not sure I could have found a better day to stumble across you guys!!

Please could you add me to your 2013 challenge.

Rosyq mentioned that she did her 2nd purse challenge slightly differently by putting a quid into her sealed pot which I thought was a great idea and one that I'm much more likely to stick to and sooooo here I am, perfectly timed to be inspired by all of your savings and ready to start a new challenge with you all!

Was planning on just using second purse money to put in to a sealed pot, but will try to follow your thread and hopefully get even more inspired and save extra.

Congratulations on all your savings! :T

I totaled a meager £22.27.

But bare in mind that I'm 17 who can't get a job and my only source of income is £10 a month pocket money...

Please sign my up for 2013! I have a £50 target!

Do fellow sealed pot savers save coppers and 5ps?? I have coppers all over the house in various pots. I also have a money pot which solely has 5 pence coins in. I think I might keep saving until its full!

Hi again, Flat Eric, such a shame about the pig. Why not get a couple of tins from £1land, no temptation then. Difficult to answer what we all do with coins we save, everyone has their own ways, but do what you're happiest with, that's the most important thing...to please yourself and be happy with it.

Oh WER it's just wonderful to see you back and VERY well done with what you've saved!!!!! :T How's our Kas these days? I hope she too will be here to say hello, having saved as well I hope. Please tell her we look forward to her coming on. You take good care, and you're already down for SPC 6.

Don't worry too much, missladyannie, at least you've still got a very good amount, enough to still be so proud of!!!! :T Everyone stays in each year and a link will be put on here in the early hours so you can get to SPC 6, see you there.

All things considered, Callie, at 17 and without a job, there's absolutely nothing meagre about what you've saved. At your age you already realise the importance of saving, keep that up and be sooo terribly proud of yourself and all you've saved!!! :T ...and in future would you please not make me so teary Your Target's updated as requested.
