Well I went Shopping and managed to get some Change....I've left myself with Plenty for the next Week and I've got plenty of Food in so I'm happy....
So I'm able to Pot another £7.06 which makes for a Grand Total of £35.20....Not far to go until I get to £50...So I'm really really happy with that...
I am aiming for about £450 by November...which is a tall order but my Family have been AMAZING this Year (even though it's only February) and I really want to spoil them for Christmas....So I'm gonna make it happen!!0 -
Right well as I haven't potted for a while and I have birthday money burning a hole in my purse, it's been there since early Jan and I just don't know what to spend it on, which is unheard of, I am potting the £25.
I have that cash, and vouchers and just no idea what to spend any of it on. What's happened to me.
Happy birthday crimson.addict. Have a lovely day. :bdaycake::bdaycake::bdaycake:

Still plenty of time to get accounts in order. Have already spent nearly half of next months budget which doesn't officially start until Wednesday!!! :eek:
Some of that was a DR order....mince anyone!!!
Oh did you get the half price mince too? I've made a shepherds pie & a lasagne to freeze so I'm feeling all virtuous now :rotfl:
However I've had to go to Lid! And C00p today cos I'm such a nelly I didn't get everything in one go, but at least that's given me £2.05 to pot
Off down to mums tomorrow so I might have some change from the train fare
Enjoy the rest of the weekend potters

Yes I did, and I ordered some lamb mince too. Through quidco of course!! There was also a 10% discount code for 'mince' although it only went through on the steak mince. However mince is mince and if you aren't going to specify which mince in your terms and conditions, you should apply the discount to ALL mince. Anyway, after a persistent telephone call they eventually politely agreed to apply the extra discount. It was only £2 but every little helps!
Just bought chips for tea So naughty!! But the chip butties were yummy! 20p change to pot!

Hello everyone and hope you are having a good weekend so far. The sun has had his hat on down here in sunny ole Devon, so we made the most of it this afternoon!
Happy birthday to those who are celebrating; have fun days!
Quick update on the potting front; change from haircut meant two nice 2 pound coins in the cow pot, then after a snatched packet of crisps (I was SO hungry!), 15p in the 5p pot and 20p in the sealed pot. Probably easier to put everything in together I know, but I do like the sound of heavy small pots, it's very encouraging! :rotfl:
Am going to try for a few NSDs this week, so might be lying low for a few days lol
Stay warm and well, and enjoy the little bit of sun that seems to be around while it lasts!!SPC No. 104 (oh no I've lost my magic 2000!)
SPC 2013: £378.23 (paid for Christmas, yippee!)
Target for SPC 2014: £500
