Gosh Sparky that was a good spot :T
Well I've potted £5 in change tonight. £2 for gym visits and the rest is the savings I've made buying in bulk. I'm not doing a proper 2nd purse because I'm not organised enough to keep track of the money & stockbut I've taken on board the bulk buying and potting the savings I make :j
Hope everyone's enjoying the sun now it's here!

Hi all, well hasn't it been a beautiful day
I decided not to waste it and to pop into town for a stroll in the sunshine. I have just £10 in my purse & £1.30 in my bank account until the end of the month :eek: so decided to go on the bus to save the 80p parking fee. I walked to the village ....and had just missed the bus.... 'Darn' , I thought
I didn't want to wait half an hour for the next bus so walked home again feeling a bit let down. After lunch my DH having finished his gardening jobs for the day took pity & offered to take me out :T We had a lovely afternoon in Bewdley and he bought me an ice cream, bless him. I've just had a lovely glass of wine too and to cap it all he has let me keep the 10p I fished out from under his car seat
Potted!
I hope everyone has had a super day too. Oh, and well spotted sparky... a whole tenner! jakes-mum your little Miss Lily is a treasure! What a water baby...
Have a lovely evening all! xSealed Pot Challenge #012

Hi rosyq, thanks for asking, I went back for a second interview and questioned them quite a bit harder and it turns out they want me to cover south London (croydon, lewisham, etc) and as I live in rural suffolk it would involve 5 hours travelling in total a day, so leaving home at 6.15 and with the best will in the world, I couldn't physically do it after working a full day, so have had to declinea real pity as the company sounded ok same with the people. Oh well, back to the drawing board!!
But yes, it was good of you to remember. thanks.SPC Nbr.... 1484....£800 Saved £946 in 2013)

grrrr forgot to talk about my potting!!
I had a bit of luck, found a £20 in a handbag which I hadnt used for a while:D fantastic! so have put that in the cats head along with 3 x £1 from DH and another 4 x £1 from me and between us we had 5 x £2 coins so they went int the owl head.... yippee!!
Went to Kings Lynn at the weekend and as we were driving over the fens saw a lovely tawny owl swoop down and land on a fence post - what a most spectacular sight - really made my day.
Today has been glorious, lovely warm sun bringing on my plants in the mini greenhouse and encouraging the flower pots to warm up and growhappy days, pity its going to be damp again at the weekend.

Morning everyone
First morning back on a bike. Had to make the effort as I haven't been to the gym for ages, so I thought if I got another bike and rode to work, I could save petrol money & get fir at the same time. 2p car park change as I headed for the bike shed this morning.
Looks like it's going to be a lovely day again out there, so enjoy it everyone, stay safe & keep savingSparky0107 - Sealed pot challenge member #002. Total for SPC3 £1,030.57 Total For SPC 4 £2247.00 Total for SPC 5 £2574.62 :T Total for SPC 6 £4552.91:T

About 20p for the pot today. I've had quite a bit of roadkill recently - all pennies. It seems people don't think it's worth picking them up. Don't they realise the pennies add up?!0
