    Would it be cheating to bag it up early??

    Cheating or well organised? I'm sure we would love to mark it down as being well organised but i don't think Sue would be too pleased with us hahaha

    I don't think so either :rotfl:

    It's getting so hard to resist now! I have no idea how much I've saved, and am trying not to guess - mainly in case I think I've definitely managed to save X amount and end up disappointed :rotfl: But I'm so excited about opening it :D I haven't had anything to pot for the last couple of days.

    We bought a car on Saturday, which we're going to collect tomorrow and it's a lot more than we were planning on spending on a new car...but hopefully it's a bargain for what it is. We're just scared that it's not right and have done ourselves over. *Keeping our fingers crossed*

    That coupled with the fact that we've been lazy this month and haven't done proper weekly shops which has meant we've spent a lot more on food means we're skint, so there will probably only be the odd 1ps and 2ps going into the pot over the next two weeks :( Oh well, what we do manage to pot is better than nowt :p

  • £7.35 went into my pot over the weekend. I am a little into my overdraft at the moment as i treated myself to a new coat.... I haven't bought one in at least 5 years and even then it was a cheap @sda one so i went into town and decided that if i found a coat i liked i would buy it regardless of price. Found one for £79 in the end, it's just a little blazer type one but fits me well.

    So no more potting for me until i am paid Wednesday!

    Lol.
    I'll stay firm and wait a little longer then. :D
    Only 6 weeks on Thursday I believe?

    Potted 2 x single coins = another £2.
    £590+ potted so far and only £10 to get to that £600 mark.
    I think there is at least £30 in uncounted part £'s, so if I can get to £670 by the 28th November, then I should reach £700.
