Sealed Pot Challenge 5 ~ Part 2

Thanks folks, so far I have placed the remaining change for the day which was £4.41. It's a start and I really do think this is a better idea than spending it through my lunch hour when I already take my own sandwiches to work.
My aim is to not use any of my coins and place all of it into my Sealed Pot
If I keep going at this rate I'll have hit my £300 target in 68 days, but somehow I doubt that will happen.
Well done everyone, you all appear to be doing so well!Debt Free as of April 2012! Sealed Pot Challenge 5 (no. 1805) - £13.23/£3000 -

LC2 glad you've got rid of your migrain my DW suffers terribly from them so I know how you feel ((HUGS)).
Tomjo7 welcome to SPC 5 enjoy the fun and enjoy saving, please don't get led astray by Lucky Charlie & Jakes-mum they're trouble them 2 but they like to act all sweet and innocent, as you can see from LC2's post saying I need help, the cheek of it!

Hi everyone, hope anyone that's been poorly is on the mend. Have been a bit slack about the potting of late but will get back on it (and have surplus money at the end of the month so in the ISA with it!)!Sealed pot challenger#1677

Hi LC2, I must remember that...it's a good 'un! :rotfl:
So sorry to hear about your rough weekend. Migraines are a killer aren't theyI used to have one a month, each lasting 3 days, as regular as clockwork they were. I tried everything under the sun from prescribed drugs, vitamins, natural remedies, excluding certain foods etc etc to no avail. They finally stopped when I was 58 and I haven't had one for 4 years. The relief is bliss... I know this is no comfort at the moment but hopefully yours will pass too. Big <<HUGS>> and lots of sympathy to you :kisses3:Hope the GC are all ok too.
Today I did the food shopping (carefully) and have potted the 55p change which leaves me a whole tenner for the rest of the week so I'm well pleased
