    Hi everyone :hello:

    Seems like ages since I posted, another mad and long week at work!

    But I am very happy to say that my potting and watching my spends has added to the car fund and now earlier than expected I now have the money for May when I am paying off the finance :j:j:j

    So back to potting proper from tommorow although I have been putting in bits and pieces

    Hope all are well....

    Welcome newbies its good to have you with us :T

    :hello: one and all and welcome to new people


    Seemed to spend all week-end in the kitchen and now both freezers are FULL ! Am having to re-organise my self a bit now working some evenings and having to leave DH something for his dinner that he can manage without too much bother after working all day. (I know - he's spoilt, but he's worth it :kisses2: )


    Potted Sunday pound


    Hope you all have a great Monday

    Everyone is doing sooooo well.We are going to break records this year,I know it!:j:j:j.
    I have been sorting out my money tonight (now I have got some :D).
    I have potted: £16.55 leftover from Feb budget
    £2.00 leftover from March budget
    £1.48 refunded from Tesco yesterday due to their confusing shelf price.
    So a total of £20.03.
    My pots are feeling very heavy,and the pot I fill with 50p-and-under pieces(with the occasional note,just to surprise me on Opening Day :rotfl:),is EXTREMELY full:had to shake it around so coins would slide in.
    Keep up the great work,everyone :am soooo looking forward to November.Might even go and count up how many sleeps haha[1].gif

    My terremundi (sp) was full so spent the weekend tweezering all the money out. Pleased to say I had £330 in there which is on its way to the bank, and a few odds back in the pot to get me going again :j:T
    (added to sig :A:rotfl:)
    Also I read on here about people doing the envelope saving systems so I have been doing that for 2 weeks now and already have £45 in my grocery envelope.:j:T

  • Hiya everyone haven't posted for a while. Still been potting away though my sealed pot now holds £180. Hopefully I'll be potting a little bit more over these next two weeks as it's the school holidays and I've decided to take my budget out of the bank in cash. Happy potting everyone :beer:

    Is it really only 234 sleeps until I break my back from picking up my sealed pot? Looking forward to it already. :D

    Not much to pot today as I'm running down the cash in my purse. However, I've got 50p DH booty and another 50p from very loose change in my purse! :D

    Have a good Monday and happy potting!
