"Sealed Pot Challenge" ~ 7

mumofthetwins

Hi guys ... everyone seems really friendly

Well I have made a start on my pot ... while having a quick tidy around I found 47p lying around ... I've only got a juice bottle at the mo which I washed out and gonna use tomorrow when its dry

I am going to get a tin but I'm on a bit of a roll with the NSD at the minute so I don't want to go to town until I really have to.

One of tomorrows jobs is to clean the car and I usually always find something in there ... just gotta hope the rain stays away

I have £1.50 in my pocket money purse to last me until Thursday. I am feeling a bit bitten by the savings bug again though so I will pot the 50p when I get home and keep the £1 just in case. I will pot it on Thursday if it is still there!

Oh, very well done, Gap! Keep it up mind.

Thanks a lot, little_sweetie, I'm getting there amid little set-backs. I just read your last post and by heck you're going to need pull your belt in to make that £15 go such a LONG way!!! :eek:

Another £ for the tin - I'm really starting to watch what I spend now as well which is a bigger bonus. I'm already getting excited about the grand reveal.....

Good for you, AlwaysHappy, and I suspect you won't be the only one. :grinheart

Hope you feeling a bit better. I have been reading some interesting stuff about pure Coconut Oil - don't know if you want to Google it

Thanks so much for your thoughtfulness, Lynne, unfortunately I don't think it'll be any good for my ailment. Still, I googled it and it looks like some great stuff for so much. Thank you Fantastic news for your DH!!

Hello princess-angelica, it's so good to see you. Not to worry about not coming here too often just as long as you're saving.

£4.12 potted today...I now have to rescue my purse from my 3 yo son, whenever we come back from a shopping trip as he wants to put ALL my change and paper money in the "penny pot"... I think I may have created a money saving monster lol!! :rotfl:

Brilliant, atolaas! There's a LOT worse things he could be. :rotfl:

Hi Lost and GREAT saving!!!! :j

It's lovely to read that you're sharing yours with the littlies, ChevalierTialys, well done you!

Good to see you, mossy, I hope all's going well.

Stick with your boss and learn the ropes of winning, Meowhouse! ATB.

A whopping great £25 in the pot this week, t'would be nice IF I could keep that up, but...I doubt it. Have a lovely weekend all, shan't be here tomorrow as taking our DD and some of their young'ns to the sea for a few days (them), we'll be back again tomorrow night, then back to fetch them on Monday.

Have a wonderful weekend, SPCers, and keep right on saving.

Potted my £2 change from yoga and found a bag of 20p pieces so put them in too. You'd think all my spare change would be in the pot already, it amazes me I still find money just lying around!

Happy birthdays all round, and welcome to new people, have fun on the best thread on MSE

LeaLea89

£20 in the pot for me today, biggest daily pot to date!! Nearly filled my second tin, (theyre not big ones!). My mum and dad have been filling up a couple of pots when they heard about what I have been doing and they are off on holiday shortly so they are going to cash theirs in to have some extra spending money - guess who has to go through with the money bags and count up the 1p's yup you guessed it, yours truly! oh well at least they will enjoy spending it whilst they are there!

hickles69

£4.24p to the pot; but of a tight month.


Payday tomorrow woo hoo

I have to confess :A as we're coming back to UK for a holiday next week and not wanting to leave money about the house (you just never know) I counted up my $2 coins and had a amazing $1270 (approx. £706.73) :eek: this is now safely deposited in savings account. Makes me wonder just how much I will have saved come the official opening day
