    afternoon.
    i had a sort through my purse and popped £1 in my piggy bank.i am just about to go into town though and always get tempted to buy a lovely chicken and bacon roll for lunch.so i thought i'd be very good instead and put the £2.30 i would have spent in the piggy bank instead.:j

  • Afternoon everyone,

    Just rushing through so haven't had time to read all the posts, but good luck to those looking for jobs and to everyone who is poorly {{hugs}} and I hope you feel much better soon!

    Had change from DS1 from his travel/lunch money for college from last week and some change from food shopping ~ I think about £6 went in my pot although it may be more? Probably won't be much more money potted this week but I shall start with a vengeance again next week!!! :D

    I hope the rest of the week goes well for all :)

    xx

    In fair amount of pain so cheered myself up by potting £2.45 :j:j:j:j:j

    Reckon I have close to £25 now since I started a little over two weeks ago...

    There are 302 potting days left excluding today and the 28th November :j:j:j:j Which means I need to pot roughly 91p per day to hit my target £250

    Hello All, just to let you know that I am still putting money away in my sealed pot. Apologies for not being around for such an age but life got in the way.

    I will make a note on my phone to remind me to check in. I have fibro and at the moment my memory is atrocious, plus I am helping look after my mum two days a week who had a serious stroke last July, so I have been chasing my tail rather the last few months trying to keep up with general household duties.

    As I have not had opportunity to read the thread, I do hope that you are all well.

  • Hi peony40 there are so many people poorly at the moment. Hope you feel better soon and that your mum is on the mend.

    I had to buy a new purse this morning :( but I found a lovely one in my friend's shop and she very kindly gave me 10% discount without me asking :) therefore I have potted the 40p discount :T

    Chin up everyone, Spring will be along before we know it :j
