ahh i have finally stumbled across the fabled sealed pot challenge. i have wondered for a long time now what this was all about. i find floor money all the time. i didn't know there were so many dedicated followers. at school you were called a scrubber if you picked up 1 and 2ps and looked down upon. Its good to see it doesn't have a stigma anymore and i have introduced my parents to it as they thought it was impossible in london but i proved them wrong. I tried with a copper pot and 5p pot but recently have succumbed to emptying it rather frequently not that there was much in it. So I thought I would seek you out to see if could help me regain motivation to keep the pot full. Vouchers and coupons have been my downfall recently just constantly getting items despite the fact I didn't need them and then being sad when I had no money. I cant help my hoarding/stock piling tendancies sometimes(medical).Sealed pot challenge no5 member no1816!!0
