"Sealed Pot Challenge" ~ 7

jakes-mum

Just a quick wee note, it's free listing on eBay today on 5 day listings so if your looking to declutter (and make a few pence for your pot) get a listing but do remember the fvf's now also include your postage so ebay take 10% of your entire payment not just your auction sale price. Also Royal Mail changed the rules on small packet sizing so a lot of small bulky items will now be classed as a small packet as well as the old small packet sizes. Off the top of my head I think new size is 35cm x 25cm x 16cm, but do check royal mails site to confirm. (Means more cost effective to send clothing items etc)

Jake is off to get his braces today I'm happy! . . . . He is not :rotfl:, pfft, he's only got to have them 14 months, I had 2 1/2 years! . . . My sister had 4 years :rotfl:

No pennies at the minute but sending DH to aldi after to pick up dish washing tablets so hopefully some pennies for hungry mr pot later

Hiya everybody just want to know when people say they have banked there money have you actually taken it to the bank. I am only asking as my money is now mounting up in my terramundi pot. When my sil got burgled they stole her pot and I would be devastated to loose the money. Any advice would be greatly received thank you xxx:beer:

Hello princess-angelica,

I am sorry to hear your sil was burgled, as far as I am aware you can pay your money to the bank at any time - you just add a note in your signature to let Sue and Sparky keep a running total. I believe this is right but I know that Sue and the many other lovely people here will be able to give you the correct advice if I am wrong!

EDIT: I think some SPC's have a special account to put their loot in!

Hello all,

I have been lurking for a while, not felt well enough to post for a while but still potting away. I am going to post more later as I am going to bed after a hectic night shift!

Take care all

Haven't been updating the thread, but I have been popping my change into my sealed pot as and when I had it. I would estimate about £1.50 over the last few days.

Sue it's such a relief to hear that people are getting food and medical supplies in somehow. Who is paying the £1000 per day? Council? Government? I feel so sad for them all.

One of our friends (ex-neighbour) who has a pub at Upton-on -Severn was on TV last night saying how the flood barriers have saved the area. He has only had the pub for a few months so it could have been a total disaster for him..phew...

Thanks for the fleabay tip jakes-mum I can't see the free listing on the site but I'll have a go later today. Hope you feel better today BTW.

Hugs to any poorly people and welcome to new potters. Enjoy saving!

10p found on the ground when walking round to feed the neighbour's cat in the pouring rain this morning...potted!

I do hope sparky is ok ....Stay safe everyone

Thanks for my star SUE, I think it's going to be hard to quit for DH as he doesn't want to. He's only doing it for me. But at least he's trying

JAKESMUM I don't want to dishearten you but please be careful with hypnotherapy. I went for some when my phobia was just a little problem. I spent about £3000 on it as I truelly believed it was helping. It wasn't intil family members pointed out I was a lot worse that I noticed, it's actually made me 10x worse!!!!
I believe CBT just helps you rationalise things, but as you have trouble getting there I reccomend the book 'cbt for dummies'. It's got some great little excersises in then to help you locate the problem. Hope that helps x

Anyway sorry for rambling, 2x lovely £2 coins today :j

£1.10 for me today, hope everyone is having a good day, staying warm and dry.
