    4 x 50p potted today.

    thinking about heading over to the shop for an ice-cream, but that requires peeling myself off the sofa and exerting some energy in this heat - haha.

    DH and I have decided to spend our big pot money (not £2 coin tin)replacing the carpet in our livingroom as its currently freshly decorated with a lovely red wallpaper and the carpet is orange :o

    We did have a sneaky count up of all the notes, £1, 50p and 20p's and there isnt quite enough to pay for the carpet and fitting so its all gone back in again and we'll wait a few more months and hope theres enough in there then :D

    £2 coin in the £2 coin tin today which has been hiding in my purse for over a week now :eek:

    Nothing spent yet today. Been at home. Though DP is insisting on going out to dinner at an all you can eat place. Not sure who is supposed to be paying!

    I got money today, was a $90 boost for some reason but then I spent $40 - whoops! Hopefully though I'll be able to pot most of this fortnights money if my mum treats me like she usually does when I stay over!

    £2 in the pot today. It really is getting very full and now I can see the coins about an inch below the slot I cut in the top of the box.......oh its exciting :)

    Definitely need to organise another pot, and soon :)

    Hope all are having a good day, and get to enjoy some of the sunshine today. Happy potting everyone :)

    I ended up paying for dinner, budgetted about $80 so withdrew $100 just in case, our friend bought drinks so I only paid $61.50 so I put $23.50 into the pot.

    Checked and weighed my "pot" today.
    3" from the top of the cardboard whisky tube/carton (stuck the end of a spoon in) and weighed just under 4.5kg. lol
    £600+ will be almost 7kg!

    £2.40 potted today.

    £406+ potted so far.
