For Christmas my 11yo daughter gave me a beautiful calender/diary from Paperchase.Tonight I got around to putting some dates in it.
Now,with a job with funny hours(different each week),4 children and the associated afterschool activities,playdates,and school events....with dental appointments,swimming lessons,ballet classes,Scouts and just the general "stuff" that I have to remember to do in a week,what do you think would be the first entry I would put in my shiny new diary?
Thursday 27th November:SEALED POT CHALLENGE-
POT OPENING! (yes,including the smiley face).

So have I got my priorities right,or what ??

Well I've lost my phone and am struggling to keep up with the thread:mad:, i usually log in when I'm carting my little cherubs around. I'll need a new one my contract isn't out till October. I was planning on keeping my phone then and looking for a cheaper sim only deal but this isn't to be, will need to look for a reasonable deal on a smart phone, that will last me for a few years.:(

When I went back to work i found £3 odds in my work jacket pocket, and I had about £20 left from my weekly shopping budget. so I popped all that in my pot.

Back to catching up for me :cool:

Hi all
In anticipation of getting my official SPC number, i have a sealed pot at the ready (a box in which a famous coffee brand recently sent me a free jar of coffee Frugal!) and have deposited £1.93 in 1 and 2 pences that i periodically throw in a jar when my purse gets too heavy!

I've been thinking of ways to add to my pot, and have come up with an idea to keep me motivated and kill two birds with one stone - as you can see from my sig, i'm trying to walk myself to a decent level of fitness in 2014, so i am going to sponsor myself!! 10p a mile (for now) which i will add to the pot at the end of every Sunday. £1.65 so far! :beer:

I have just found an app that's going to pay me to shop depending on what i buy! I'm going to need some serious willpower to not buy stuff i don't need..... I think i'll just start out with some eggs and check that i will get paid for it first. I will pot the money earned. I'm also going to try to remember to use the check-in feature to earn some money that way, it's only a few pence but better than nothing.

Anyway, Payday today and i have been paid more than i thought i would be so i will pot the money i have left over from last week. Not sure how much that is yet though.
