    Evening all and........

    :beer: HAPPY NEW YEAR POTTERS! :beer:

    Apologies for not being around much but have been dipping in and out to read all your comments....

    Not potted a lot for the last couple of weeks, I wonder why :D. anyway, back to the £1 a day and any loose change at the end of the day starting on the 1st of Jan. No point in doing it tomorrow as its a NSD.

    Used my new cooker (and fridge.freezer) both delivered the 22nd so just in time for christmas dinner and they are still making me smile when I think I got them with my potting money. Yay.... :D:D:D

    Right O all, time to go and prepare tea, if I am not here tomorrow, I hope everyone has a happy and wonderful new year, best wishes to all.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Right, got my mad up. lol
    I'm now also saving £1 coins as well as the £2, 50p and 20p coins and upping my target from £300 to £500.
    I will spend some £1 coins as needed, but very rarely spend the others.

    7 x £1 coins added today.

  • Yay, finally found the thread again, well my sealed pot is not £35 ish up (I've put quite a few £1 in without counting them). Just a tad bit worried as looks like my pot wont be able to make a full year, if I continue this way hmmmmm. Hopefully will pick up a couple more sealed pots from a pound store when in England next.

  • Wow Nikki that is fabulous - LOVE your pig :D

    Mishmogs - I bet you are still smiling. How fantastic - wonderful inspiration to newbie potters like me - just shows what it can add up to!

    Slim pickings for me over the last few days - just 40p to add to my tub, but on the plus I have spent little and tidied much :D

    Happy New Year everyone xx

  • Well we didn't make much in our pot compared to what we hoped to make; £322. However we DID move house and that was very expensive so cannot complain :D
