"Sealed Pot Challenge ~ No 6"

Sue-UU

Oh those alerts are so beneficial, Wyre, helps keep us on our financial toes.

Ahh, Helen, that's so lovely of you to say, and it has to be said that without all you wonderful folk here it would never have such amazing warmth. A terrific thread indeed where we all care for each other.......

........sparky too!!!!! Only joking, sparks, you know that. Ah bless him, he's quite possibly sound asleep after a hard night's work. :A

Bebs...if you're watching in then please.....pop your total on SPC 5 here I'd do it for you if I could, but I can't. Please see PM from week before last.


Well done, Motoko, good to have you started with us.

...you need not say more, LC 2 :rotfl: You have a lovely time and hurry back afterwards with your pottings.

Nearly missed you, Eltee, well done!

Keep wrapped up warm, everyone, and take care, snow or not!

Change from shopping on Saturday.....straight into the pot

Plus I emptied a few jars which we used to throw spare change into. I didn't count it but there must have been about £5 in them!

Pennies make pounds

30p in the pot at the week end.

I think I need to do some cleaning or rummage down the back of the sofa!

There is a notice board at work that can be used to sell stuff, so I've been asking the kids to sort out anything they don't want and we'll try to sell it for a small amount. Everything we get can go into the pot.

No snow left here. I came down heavy late morning but by 2pm it was slush and now its raining.

Great day for the sealed pot. Went to parents house and they had a big bag of coppers which they donated to the pot. Just counted it and got £9.24!!!! Yippee!!! Makes up from my disastrous last week. Took the rabbit to the vets and she needs to go back tomorrow for an operation to get her teeth done. £90!!! Plus lost £20 note out of my pocket on Friday. Hope it's by my desk. Plus road tax has gone up to £170.

I know the feeling. One of my Rabbits has wonky teeth so they don't wear evenly. The result - Dental work every 10 months costing between £80 and £122 depending on what offers they have on at the time.

From what I've read if they need doing by 6 months old its genetic, if they are older its diet related. In my case its the former. He's 3 next month and they've been done 4 times now.

I really should put £10 aside every month in preparation for it.

The snow came :snow_grin and then the snow went. It was funny seeing lots of other staff members checking the school website to see if the head teacher had posted a message to say the school was closed! :rotfl:

I have 45p to pot today, would have been 50p but the blighters at Waitrose gave me a dime in my change...how rude!! :eek: On the plus side I'll just bung it into my American money bag.

Hope everyone is well.

please can i join? I already have a terramundi pot but am useless at using it, and have taken money out before so this is a fresh start ensuring that I stick to saving and have a nice sum November 28th. Just started my pot with £1.60.

Sue-UU

Certainly you can join, haybel19. A very warm welcome to you. Have fun saving. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 5 of page 1. Please read through post 1 as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge.

*Please pop your numbers on your sigs, it really helps.

It's so good to hear folk are still with us, greenanne, saving too!

You've got it, Dave, and the pounds take care of themselves! You're doing well.

By heck, Mini Zoo, that's one heck of an expensive tooth problem!!! :eek: Vets really do now how to charge! :mad:

.......oooh I'll bet seeing that dime hurt, mossy,

NB everyone! Always keep an eye out for foreign currency in your change, folk!!
