"Sealed Pot Challenge" ~ 7

Got a proper pot now it's my OH's jar. Sold a mobile that was old on the book of all faces and hopefully have a buyer for a dress at £5 so that will go in the pot if the lady collects it!

Oh and I like the surprise of adding up the pot funds! But can see why people like to add as they go along x

I think im going to leave it as a surprise and maybe use it for something nice for me and the oh for christmas as we more often than not dip out of getting each other something.

Evening potters :wave:

Well it's good to see lots more newbies and longer established potters returning:D

A no spend day for me today but added £1 to the pot for good measure :T

Love that this thread is moving so fast lots of great reading and inspiration for the evening xx

Well my sister has just left and it appears that my nattering about my SPC has rubbed off - she has been to the shop this morning and bought herself 2 sealed tins :j
One for odd bits of change and one to save £1 a day - so very proud of her - but now the gloves are off to see who has the biggest pile! In the best possible sisterly love way!

It's a few weeks since I've been on and looks like I've missed loads :eek:

I'm delighted to report that I got a beautiful personalised terramundi pot from my lovely DD - think my SPC last year inspired her. I', soooo pleased - it's just gorgeous.

Quick question Sue - can you get notes out using the trusty ruler or just coins?

Happy New Year everyone - happy saving for 2014 :money:

MalhamCat, that is amazing savings, well done you!!!!! :T I'm not at all surprised you're aiming higher this time around. Did you want me to put a Target of £500 after your name/number? Up to you entirely.

Thanks Sue! :j I think I'd rather keep my target 'unofficial' for now and not have it written down if that's ok?

Managed to pot 50p today that I saved from not buying a work-induced mid-afternoon chocolate snack (:o), as my colleague offered me a couple of chocolate digestives she didn't want instead (she started on a diet as a new year's resolution: I haven't... :rotfl:)

I found some change in the car, I haven't driven it for a couple weeks as I lent it to a friend, but it was a bonus this morning when I popped to the shop to find just under £5 in the cup holder it has been separated into different challenge pots but about 75p went into the sealed challenge pig.

£1.05 added to my pot today. Unexpectedly did 2 hours overtime today - have never had any before so when I get it will pop it in my pot.

Returned home today after being away for New Year and potted the £3.50ish (forgot to count exactly) which was left in my purse.

a big thanx to sue-uu for my shiny star :staradmin the first of many to come i hope

ive just managed to catch up on all these posts, i can see myself being cross eyed by the end of the year and needing my pot for lazer eye surgery lol

my other half has seen me saving and has started a pot of her own but she will probably empty it at the first sign of a sale on shoes!
