    Today I had to post some ebay sales so the change from the PO went in my pot. Also I am going to use up my mahoosive stash of toiletries before buying any more this year. I'm potting an extra £1 each time I finish a bottle of something instead of buying more. I finished a bottle of shower gel today so that was an extra quid for the pot :T

    This is a fantastic idea I think I will try to do the same as I too always have a massive stash - well who can resist a 3for2!! And I got loads of loverly loverly stuff for Xmas so really no need to go shopping for ages:T

    No potting today as achieved a NSD on a working day for the first time in months - so feeling rather pleased with myself. Took lunch to work, so no popping out for a sandwich at lunchtime.
    Working away next couple of days, so kind of enforced canteen visits will mean a well-fed pot when I get back.
    Little steps and great strides both get you there.

    So dazza its you hogging all the £2 coins is it!:rotfl::rotfl: no wonder they are in short supply - think I'm going to be asking for them in my change from next month so I can stash some too :T

    My terramundi has not been fed in a while ( but unless I'm really lucky in lean January it will have to wait until after payday to be fed again:)

    Hi Sue, could I please join?
    I have a very specific reason to do so and hoping to get near £500, I know it's a bit ambitious. This is for engraving on my hubby's gravestone, he passed away almost 3 years ago but every time I get the money up something goes wrong and it has to be spent.
    This year I'm determined to get it done regardless of what happens, I managed to pay for the rest of the funeral but totally forgot about this, d'oh!
    Thanks :)

    Sue UU - thankyou for my fabulous star it was a lovely surprise - hope you are back feeling more tip top xx

    Well a NSD for me today, however I found my first FREE money on the floor of the toilet at work 50p so it went straight in to the pot when I got home ( so excited:j) but still hunting the first elusive ROADKILL proper!:rotfl::rotfl:
    Thanks to everyone for a fab thread its been great to catch up and welcome to newbies and returners:D
