Thanks Sue To me she is still the 'sealed pot puppy'! although she is now 30" at the shoulder, and taller than me when standing on her hind legs, not difficult as i'm only 5' 1!!!
Amazing isn't it that saving a bit daily, no matter how little , can turn into a dream come true?

Hello All :wave:

been a bit of a busy bee as DD has been badgering me to put the tree up so spent over 2 hrs yesterday putting it up and decorating which includes a mad dash to our local garden centre after I got our brand new LED lights out the box, wrapped them round the tree and only had enough to cover the bottom 3 branches :eek: I kinda forgot we got a new tree last year so its now 7ft tall :rotfl: . . . sooooo im £60 lighter but got some lovely 27 mtr lights which have multi functions as well

Also got all my lovely musical decs out and had one playing the tunes while all the others just had the lights and mechanics running my best friend brought her boys round and her youngest was mesmerised by them all and refused to move from infront of them for the entire time he was here so had to spend my evening going 'nooooo, no touching!' :rotfl: bless him, revolving snowmen are way too tantalising to a 3 year old

Been to see my dad today as he had a bunion removed on monday and is stuck in a chair with his foot elevated, me mum had to go see my sister as my nephew had his school play, so had to pop over and make the old man a sandwich for his tea

A lovely £2 coin in my tin today hoping for more pennies tomorrow

Evening

Only 36p for me to pot today, s'pose some is better than none.

I hope everyone is safe. It's very windy outside.

Potted £10 in my piggy bank which my sister's boyfriend owed me (for buying his bus ticket when he lost his)
and £1 in my Emergency Savings tin (Part of what my friend owes me - he owes me £2 now lol)

There isn't much point in putting it in my purse as I will spend it and will regret it later. Also there's 7p floating around somewhere (2p may be under my bed & 5p may be in my jacket from this morning, but I'm really tired to go hunt them lol

I found 10p whilst at a self service checkout earlier so in my pot it goes. not much action for me as I have been at home all week and then the snow made an appearance so pretty much guarantees my hibernation til spring :rotfl:

Firstly - Sue and Sparky i am so sorry i haven't gotten around to giving you my total yet. I have been very poorly and working until 20:30 / 21:00.

Hi Ruth, I'm really sorry to hear you've been rough, get well soon my friend. Don't worry too much about your Total, as soon as you're able then you know what to do. For now, take care of yourself!

Am Potting £1.90 tonight....The bigger amounts to Pot will have to wait until things are a bit easier financially....So little bits it is until then....

Helen, that's exactly how to save! Sometimes I think you're unaware just how well you're doing. It's early December, Christmas is just around the corner - so little bits at this time of year are brilliant. Be proud of those little bits, Helen, they help make up the Total too you know!

40p is great, EchoDelta, it's still saving.

Well done, mossy, I wouldn't have thought of doing that I'm sure. That 'little bit' as you put it will certainly do well on your cc. Take things easy.
ooooh a nice amount there, Rosy. Thanks so much for all your help, you've earned this gold star for sure. :staradmin

She sounds adorable, Caz, just a little younger than our black Lab, Jessie. It's just fantastic what savings will do, how it makes us feel too. :grinheartI always think of you on March 5th....twin SPCer. Have a good one next year.

Just a (very) small handful of change in your pot is still good, beccah, and will all add up.

A good day, tightar*e.

What a lovely day, jakes-mum, glad you enjoyed it with the kiddies. Not long now either. :xmassmile

"Only 36p for me to pot today, s'pose some is better than none."

All those 36ps throughout the year, 32b3, won't half make a difference though

Well thought out, LeopardPrintsAndTea!

Worth having eh, shiningfaery. Hibernating before Christmas??! :eek: Wait til after surely.

Sleep well, folks, and have a good, quieter day tomorrow.

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.
