`Adding an extra £3.40 from my Tesco shop this week. I should really include £147 from Boots on Wednesday but that's staying firmly in PayPal for a rainy day :-)

This week, I've managed to walk to and from the train station instead of using a bus a few times, so am potting the money I've saved (except one day when I bought a coffee at the train station due to missing my train)

£8.05 in the pot

Excellent saving, Delilah, budgetting too!!!!:T By golly you really are doing well - and can be forgiven that 1 coffee!

I'm another who is done with the Lottery. I don't want to think how much money I've wasted on it over the years. Will also be potting the dosh that I would have spent on it each week.

Me too, Thundercat, but at least, in a way, they've done us a favour and will help us save even more!! :j

Hope Lily's soon better, jakes-mum, and well done with the hamper!

Don't worry, Happybeingme, there's not much that you can't save on with us, you'll soon have a lovely pot of cash! Let's hope your poor little one has a fair night and better day tomorrow. :A

It's really lovely to hear you're so motivated, haybel19...keep at it.

It sounds like good thinking, CuteAsButtons, good SPC savings too.

Have a lovely weekend, everyone, just stay safe in the snow!

Hiya

I have just joined the forum and am sitting here in my PJ's on a snowy January night .... and have found 25p in my dressing gown pocket! That is the start of my sealed pot fund. I have on old glass sweetie jar which I will use to try to save £250 for next Christmas. Any tips (no pun intended) gratefully received!

stuck another 50p in my pot (potted twice today- its very addictive keep looking for coins to put in). Really want to prove to myself that I can save, and have a nice amount on 28th November, im normally pretty good with christmas and buy bits ready throughout the year, so want to put my potted amount into an account for rainy days (definetely not instant access)

Hi Sue - just popping back to promise that I will do my utmost to visit a bit more often! I ran one of the other threads last year to give someone else a break but they are now back at the helm so I can spend all that time over here instead :j Yippee!!

Anyways the hand is a bit better today - I can at least move it now to work properly (I burnt and grazed it on a moving belt :eek:) and am a little happier it is healing ok after a re visit to the hospital. Just have to wait patiently now......(I am NOT good at patient.....) I am sorry to hear your hand is still not as you would like - is there chance of it getting back to how it was??

Lovely to see so many new members again - I see the thread got another mention in the newsletter :money:

Hope to find more pennies for the pot soon. I am determined to do better than last years total this time around!

Happy potting everyone :beer:
