  • Hi all just been onto the other thread to report my £180 from my sealed pot this year :) This is being changed up into notes and going into my savings fund towards a house.

    Now starting from scratch with a new target of £500 this coming year, yes it's ambitious but an extra £500 towards the end of the year will be ideal as my boyfriend and I are looking to buy a house in a few months and any money in my sealed pot will be used to buy decorating materials (paint, wallpaper etc) that we might need!!

  • Hello :wave:

    Please can I request to join? Sounds like a great idea, I spotted some metal sealed pots in Home Bargains for a £1 so I'll be off to buy one of those on Friday and put it to good use :D

    Hello Everyone.... :D

    Only another 68p to Report...but hey, it's better than nothing!! I might have some more on Thursday when I get paid because I've got five £1 coins in my Purse at the moment but I don't want to put them in the Pot in case I have to take them back out again...So we'll see where I'm at on Thursday when I get paid, I should be able to put some of those £1 coins in the Pot...

    Did that make any sense whatsoever??? LoL :o
    :rotfl:It made sense to me...
    2p workkill yesterday, must try harder!

    I think you have to do it through an external site. I use photobucket

    when you upload a picture it gives you the html tags
