"Sealed Pot Challenge" ~ 7

Evening all.
Potted £5 today, a £2 coin and 3 x £1's.
I'm surprised my pot is still accepting a few coins as I'm sure it was full at around £660'ish last year.
Maybe I've miscalculated this year!! :eek:
Start new pot next week though.

I really need to up my SPC game. Because I'm not spending any money (notes) I don't have any coins to contribute! Luckily got some ebay sales ending this week, if all of those sell that makes me £50 before fees and postage Our Rainbow Twins born 17th April 2016

My pride of today is my ebay sell!
I sold one of the toy meerkats you get when you get insurance and it solf for £16! Perfect when my insurance on that site was cheaper than on others too!Our Rainbow Twins born 17th April 2016

Ooo lulu well done
I have 5 of those meerkats now and do toy with the idea of flogging them, but it fights with my OCD that insists I have to collect the set :rotfl: Alexander is not helping me by keep bringing out new ones :rotfl: :rotfl:
Feeling a bit sorry for myself today as DD accidentally head butted me in the nose last night, and though she didn't break it, she's left me with a heck of a bruise across my bridge and painful left eye bless her, she's only 6 so I had to sit on the bed going 'oh it's fine baby, you didn't hurt me' while trying to hide the tears in my eyes 
Anyway, a lovely £2 coin and 45p change today SPC No 002 SPC(3) £285/£250 (4) £519.84/£500 (5) £768.32/£500 (6) £911.30/£600 (7) £913.23/£600 (8) £1184.82/£750 (9) £2864.04/£750 (10) £3846.25/£1000 (11) £1779.72/£1000 (12) £1596.55/£1000 (13) £1534.70/£1000 (14) £775.60/£1000 (15) £700.20/£1000 (16) £2081.34/£1000 (17) £1691.15/£1000 (18) £2470.95/£1000 (19) £0/£10000 -

Yeah I was really chuffed. I think I fell for the gimmick of it to be honest but I can't complain as my insurance was so much cheaper than other comparison sites too! also sold a driving theory test cd rom for £6 Going to rummage Sainsbury's bargains later so hopefully I'll get some change!
Ouch I bet that hurt like hell! I hope it feels better soon.Our Rainbow Twins born 17th April 2016
