  • Can I ask a question - are we meant to total up our seale pot as we go along on our signature or just wait until we empty it - just want to do same as everyone else. Thanks

    Well. Shock of the day! Went to A!di today for the first time. It is a bizarre experience if you haven't been before but I usually spend over £50 in the supermarket I normally go to but I spent £21.93p I nearly fell over in shock. So much change for my pot! So I am feeding three for that but sure when out little lady arrives I won't be feeding four for that!!!!!

    £1.48 in the pot today - change from various wee spends. I'm trying to keep a lid on the spending at the moment so there might end up being less in the pot as a result. If that happens I'll feed it the odd note or pound coin if it gets hungry ;)

    I also put £6 in £2 coins into my terramundi today - that's for my Edinburgh Fringe adventures this year. Hopefully it'll pay for all my show tickets and meals/drinks while I'm having fun there this year!

    I have my purse to sort but should have about £4 to put in my new pot to start it off.

    You can do whatever you like hun. Some people (like me) add up everything they pot. I'm no good a surprises. Some just pop their money in and forget about it. Some keep a rough total.... You get the idea.

    The only thing Sue and Sparky ask is that you keep a note on your signature of anything you bank.

    I hope that helps you


    And that's me finally caught up with the posts :D

    Evening, I have just caught hubby putting money from fish and chip money change ( that he paid for) into my sealed pot but dont know how much:( I dont want to start quizzing him re how much, as it may put him off contributing any more to my pot. I have put a pound in today as well:)so may even reach a ten pound pot by end of the week:)
