"Sealed Pot Challenge ~ No 6"

Delilahh

End of my week, potting the following:

£2's - £4.00
5p's - £0.40
other - £1.57

So potting a grand total of £5.97

Still potting £2 a day with a few extra coins at times. Hopefully come the summer I will be able to make pads become pots!

Hi all
Hardly potted a thing lately! Hope March sees a few more coins going into my pot! The 1p roadkill went in that I found outside school gates (hubby was well embarrassed when i picked it up lol).

Not much potted but I'm hoping next month I'm more strong willed, positive and stick rigidly to my budgets - I must

You've got it all just right in your mind, Verityemilia, now put it all into practice and have a great March and look forward to more regular saving.

So sorry to hear the sad, though expected news, LC 2, Lets hope you can have a little breathing space before the next sad event. All the best to you both.

Yep, it's darned cold for sparks, but twas bloomin cold here today despite the sun, set to get a lot colder in the week too!

Thank you Sue-UU ~ this was really inspirational to me. I've redone my budget and will be getting cash out once a week only for shopping ~ this way I can keep an eye on what I'm spending and will hopefully have change for potting....then I went to Mr S to get a few needed bits and potted £3 ~ I'm feeling much happier now!

That sounds perfect to me, Happybeingme, I'm so pleased to have made a difference to your day.

Am I missing something or forgotten something with the making pads become pots, getting-there-slowly?!

That's some very good savings, Delilahh!

Don't worry about DH's embarrassment, mommyof4, you tell him - pennies make pounds. All the best for a good March.

Good for you, wiggysgirl.

Always be happy with your savings, folk, at least you ARE saving!

Have a great night and a good Monday, folks, keep saving well. :grinheart

Sorry about your sad news LC2. :heart2:

DD is on the mend now, had a smile on her face most of the day (lovely to see) and had lots of energy. Won't be long before we're telling her to calm down and not make so much noise lol!! :rotfl: :kisses3: Wouldn't have it any other way though, she really was a poorly girl lovely to have her almost back to normal! :heart2:

Woooooooooo Hoooooooooooo Sue....thanks very much for my Gold Star....It is displayed very proudly in my Signature....

Nothing to Report tonight....I've got enough left for the Week but I think if I were to put anymore in the Pot I wouldn't have enough left...so I'll leave it until I know what I've got and how much I'm gonna need to spend....

Slow and steady...that's my motto at the moment!! :T

Sue you havent missed anything but £2 pound coins go in a separate pot and so do 50p then at the end of the month I pay them to the credit card! I would prefer to pot all coins but I need to get shot of the barc1ay card first
