Good Heavens above, bladerunner, 10" high!!!! :eek: I hope you haven't filled it with pennies alone or it'll take a month to count em!! :huh: You mean you have all those except the pirate one????! Is it a daft question to ask what's in the others?! See you back in 2020 then. :rotfl:

Very well spotted, tightar*e.

Aha, you found your way then, mommyof4, lovely to see you. Your Target's updated, good luck with meeting it! :j

End of month purse clearout of £2.50 into sealed pot yesterday & NSD today = £1 into sealed pot to celebrate! Am also eyeing up OH's pile of random change on dressing table too ... is dressing table "kill" allowed?
Happy December everyone :wave:

You bet it is, Habibiboo, well done IF you get it quickly enough. I mean, you could use the line "Well, I never saw any money, sweetie!" :happyloveSo, another bird feeder then! Good to hear, they certainly need it this time of year and meal worms go down a treat. DH & I feed sunflower hearts, but what a price these days!! :eek:

Wow heyjude - didn't you do well with roadkill, brilliant!! :j Yep, I've had a good weekend and hope you did too.

Thank you for your kind words, Fiasco. I've updated your Target for next year, this year's definitely worked out well.

Ah Saver88, so you had a couple of cakes BEFORE going to the Dentist too? :eek: Was that after the Chinese?!! Or maybe the Chinese came afterwards....or 1 before and after. :undecided

2p to pot later. I found 1p roadkill and 1p on my "ex" bed. We've sorted thongs out and are friends for now but We would like to he together again when we've settled down a little and focused on college/uni , and "in a few years" I could say to my parents we're back together. Though we said that there is no one else, if we meet some one we will still be friends .

Being happy is what counts, LeopardPrintsAndTea, but did you really mean the phrase "We've sorted thongs out and are friends for now" ??

Evening everyone and sorry for being AWOL for so long but have been sooooo busy... but not too busy to count up the pot! Smashed target :T, so have more than doubled it for 2014 in the hope that I am not being too ambitious!! Started off this new year's pot with 2013's leftover shrapnel plus a whole bunch of £2 coins, so must keep on feeding it!
Well done to everyone on their super saving totals, and here's to another fab year!
Thank you to Sue and Sparky for keeping everything running; it's much appreciated. :D
Am so looking forward to our reward trip to Skeggy in January... :rotfl:

Hi Lindylou, better late then.....! I do so hope you make it with your increased Target for next November, you definitely did so well this time. The Skeggy trip is off now, sparky's taking all of us somewhere else, haven't a clue what he said now, but I'm in!

Hiya keza, it's really lovely to see you back! You were never taken off the list, no one is, your No is 694 and yes it's on your siggy. I hope you're happy in your new home and can settle into some successful saving this time round. ATB. :grinheart:xmassign:

Hello there mishmogs- I thought you were never coming! It'll be good to see what your intentions are for this next year after such a fantastic one!!! :j

Sleep well, potters and have a good Monday. Save well too of course.

Anyone wishing to join, please just ask, you're more than welcome, it's NEVER too late. There may be a lot of us, but don't be shy, we're a lovely lot, so come on in.:grinheart

Please read the 1st post on Page 1 first so you know what's what.

Ive been potting . Have popped silver coins into the tin over the weekend

nikki2804

Raring to go. Got my santa tin all ready and already potted £90. I sold some items and instead of spending it, I'm putting it towards Christmas 2014.

My target is £500.

Hey Sue, you may have guessed I'm a little obsessive compulsive about piggy banks :eek:

I have five in total they are fed as follows:

Princess pig 20p coins only
Gentleman pig 50p coins only
Blue Union Jack pig £2 coins only
Gold Union Jack pig £1 coins only
Pink Union Jack pig 1p,2p,5p and 10p coins although there are some 20p coins in there too from before the princess pig moved in.

It's daft really I should empty them and pay it into the bank, but just can't bring myself to do it.

The amount they hold it's beginning to look like a retirement fund

Nothing to pot this evening

Sue, I'm going to set a target of £400 for myself this time round

Buffythedebtslayer

I can't remember if I have signed up yet.

Hey Lynne, does your Money tree have an eventual height or does it just keep growing? I'm just [STRIKE]nosy[/STRIKE] curious.

HI SUE-UU. Think it has BIG ideas but looks like going to be a bonsai at this rate :rotfl:

Just wondering what you do with all your spare time ? Ducks to avoid large heavy object flung in my direction. - Only joking but you do sound really busy. Hope you make some 'ME' time :coffee:


Just steady £1 potted in the pot today but planning :think:


Hope you all have a fantastic Monday
