    Hi. Please count me in for 2013 challenge. I don't post very often but I do lurk quite often when I get chance to. My total for 2012 was quite a bit lower than the previous two challenges so I must pot more this time. I need to aim for £1 per day. My target is £300 and I have made a start with £2.70 worth of 10p coins which were left over from this years bagging up for the bank.
    Good luck everyone.

  • Thanks Sue for our new home. A massive well done to everyone for some amazing totals.
    Well went to our local garden centre as I had some free vouchers that were up today and paid the difference with some of my change, did the same in the cafe when I treated myself to a coffee and a cake.:)

    My target said £150 think this was last yrs so when it calms down a bit could I change it to £365 for this yr, £1 for each day of the yr.

    My DS has dropped his lunch money change in my new tin. DD didn't have any as she gave her friend some money that was due to be paid for a trip at school. When I get that back I will pot that.

    Off Christmas shopping in Sparky land tomorrow with my mum.:rotfl:

    Have a great weekend everyone.;)

    Hi everyone,

    Thanks for putting up the reminder for this year Sue - I 'cracked' a couple of months ago and had to bank my sealed pot money (due to no money for bills) and the total I had was £400 so not too far off my target.

    I think I will start today by emptying my purse into my giant coke bottle and re wrapping my coffee pot for £2

    Hi Sue

    If you could add it as my target that would be great. Thank you. I think I started SPC5 in Janurary this year so hopefully I should make £700 in SPC6. Although my wages decrease in April next year :( but I'll be getting rid of the CC by then (cash back only) so still plenty for potting.
