    Evening potters! Everyone seems to be going really well, there's some amazing amounts being potted. I got off to a good start this morning - oh had left £2.20 on his bedside cabinet unattended- silly thing!! Later I found 20p in my coat pocket and finally took son to a party at the bowling and allocated £5 for drinks. Only spent £3.30 so the change also went in the pot. I'm already getting to the point that its more satisfying to save....... not sure what is happening to me????
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    I've only just realised that we've changed numbers! Was a bit of a jump from 600 odd to 24! Anywho, have just emptied my purse of all it's change into my pot, and believe me there was a lot in there! Really need to actually bank my change from last years challenge but I feel it may take more than one trip to the bank!

    A real bargain in the end with the puzzle, jakes-mum. BTW, I am always courteous and simply ask for the same in return., not too much to ask, I don't think.

    I am unsure where I was discourteous, ive certainly never been called that before.

    Found a moneybag containing £16 in change in my bedside drawer. I think it was one months busfare that I didn't use so it's a bonus for my pot. Also potting £2.55 purse change.

    It's ok to carry on Sue, AV still working. :D


    Hugs to all who need one.

    Not had a chance to read everything yet but please can I join in ? Not sure what to aim for, but as it is my first year, I think I will just add to the pot and count it in 12 moths time :)

    Will add my number as soon as I get one :)

    Thank you and good luck everyone x

  • Had a lovely day out with my OH today and spent a little bit of money on a nice meal. Went to check what I could therefore pot and realised that wouldn't work as I paid a round tenner. Hmm, oh well 50p it is then :D

    I sure hope this wind rain thunder and lightening passes soon - was horrid when went out today, and when came back, but beautiful and sunny in between. I should stay out more often :rotfl:

    Evening

    7 £1 coins potted for me today. I am delivering Christmas presents tomorrow so probably won't spend any money, but if I get any change to pot I will pop back in tomorrow,

    Happy Sunday everyone,
