"Sealed Pot Challenge ~ No 6"

gien

Another teetotal day here so I popped 4chf in my pot.

Haven't had anything else to put in recently but I like the idea of putting in the savings you make from shopping. Would you include the difference if you bought 'whoopsied' products'

Hello Potters ...

Sorry for been AWOL..I've had the, 'dreaded lurgy viral thingy' :eek:. So lots of passing out, sleeping, mild confusion (nothing different there then :rotfl:), sickness, sweating clamminess, with a frisson of shivers and cold :rotfl: :eek: :rotfl:. Temperatures touching 40, you know the fun stuff ....could be worse though, could have had that Noravirus on top :eek:...Imagine the the possibilities for fun then _pale_ :eek: :rotfl::eek:_pale_.
A few pennies for the pot, hope the rest of you are okay - I haven't had a chance to catch up reading the thread yet.

I think I missed New Years on here too, so Happy Belated New Years to you all, if I did :beer:.

Sorry to hear you have been poorly, hope you are feeling better....


I have potted the usual £1 per day (for 3 days) and a bit of scrapnel in the VW camper van but no £2 for the owls head still tomorrows another day!

Hope everyones weekend was good and welcome to our newbie club members, :D

I found my first road kill today, a very dirty 2p, but it didn't go in my pot. I bought my nieces and nephew a sealed pot so I gave it to the youngest who is nearly 2, she then wanted the rest of the change in my purse to go in her tin, and is now running around the house shouting coins, coins.

Been AWOL the weekend, has not been a good time in the jakesmum house unfortunately, and little miss lily now has a water infection which culminated in a trip to our of hours sat evening (will these illnesses ever leave the poor mite alone? ) so have been up every 2 hours for the last 2 nights with her

Anyway apart from the hospital run, haven't been out to get any change, so no money for the pot. May be AWOL a bit longer, but will try to come on and at least read everyone's news, keep potting away all.

I've been putting money in the pot, but forgot to ask to be signed up.Then realised I was passed across from last year, thank you! Last year's SP saw me through an extravagent weekend in the Christmas markets in Germany, who knows what it will buy this year! I'm in, please.
£1.26 from DH shrapnel pot in the car this morning,

No worries, hadenmaiden, but as you've realised, I do it all automatically at the beginning of each year (late November) so no one ever needs to re-join. Well done with your new savings!

Good for you, Wyre, it's lovely to know you'll be getting more incentive by keeping up to date with us more.

Hi nu1isit?, it's so good to see you. I wondered what had happened to you, especially after your mystery gift at Christmas???? So sorry to hear you've been so very rough, for goodness sake do make sure you allow yourself the time to recover properly. Take care, DW and DDs too. x

Very well spotted, harduphelen! Keep on looking.

That painted a beautiful picture, redbooties, bless them. You might not have potted it, but it gave some pleasure! :A

Oh not again, jakes-mum! Poor little Lilly having to suffer yet again. I do hope she's soon feeling much better.

I hope everyone enjoys a good Monday, our DGKiddies are back to school and college in the morning.

Had a big clear out in my son's room today in preparation for the new arrival so he had some toys and puzzles that he no longer wanted. Put them on a local buy and sell site on Facebook. Sold one puzzle for £3 and he put that straight in the pot, bless him!

Awwww hope Miss Lily is feeling a bit better.

Potted £2 yesterday for Sat and Sunday.

Got to go back to work tomorrow and am not looking forward to it, but at least it is an inset day!

Sorted all my stuff out that I had brought home before Christmas and finally got round to doing it tonight. :j

Morning Everyone....

Well, I have another £3.62 to Pot...Which makes a GRAND TOTAL of £26.81 so far....

This is unbelievable to me....As I've said before, I've never managed to save even this much so I'm really pleased with my little self....

Not much road-kill around here....I think everyone is too stingy to drop even a penny...LoL....Oh well, I'll keep looking...

Summerdaze29, you be just as excited as you wish as it'll certainly motivate you to save hard.

Nesting all over again then Nickyj! :A A wonderful time with so much to look ahead to.

Hi mumof3plusoh! All the best with your resolution. I can't bear clutter, nor can hubby, but our lass is a right clutter bug!

I just love to hear from those who've never saved before, Helen, with luck this will be you throughout your life from here on, and what a difference that makes when so many worries can be lifted.

Right, I'm off to bed now, girls. Keep safe and well and keep saving.
