As my pots are not going to be finished till the weekend I am wondering if the loose change I found in my drawer at work should, instead, be spent on a Twirl bar? Or maybe I should just put it back in the draer until pot is ready? Oh the agony of decisions!

Oh my...get that money back in the drawer!! :eek: :rotfl:

Well done on your essay results DreamerHelen. :T

Tidied up my drawer at work today and found 4p. :dance: Perhaps tidying isn't as evil and bad for you as I thought!!....yeah right...only joking...apologies for swearing at everyone!!

So tired....is it the weekend yet??

mcjordi

another load of change in the pot.. didnt count it.. couldnt be bothered haha.

Kerry_Woman

Have potted £4.95. 52p of that was road change.

claireyfairy82

All sick in our house, put the change from my box of lemsip's in the pot to cheer me up.

I've still got the remaining shopping budget in my holding pot too (£50.03) there is a plus side to no-one having an appetite, I shouldn't need to shop this weekend , except to get some cold meat, milk and yoghurts for packed lunches. I might get to pot most of next weeks shopping budget too.

Woo hoo :T:T:T:T:T:T(that's a half hearted cheer because my heads pounding!!)

I'm off to blow my very red nose again, happy potting. x

Put it back in the drawer, sams247!! Whatever's the matter with you, it'll last a lot longer in your pot than it will in your mouth! See, hadn't thought of it like that had you! Aside from that, put any cash in a 'holding pot' until the weekend then transfer it. Have you not read the 1st post?? :cool:

Had to take out £10 for car parking yesterday (£1.50) so I've potted £2. Keeping the rest for nursery lunches on Mon/Wed then whatever change is left will be potted

ETA: I have £11.44 sitting in TCB, would it be cheating to withdraw this and pop it in my pot?

Yet another one who needs to read the 1st post about 'holding pots', Nikki! Apart from that....I thought your pot was sealed!!! :mad: I shall be grey before Christmas at this rate. Answer to your question: No! Someone's taking money out of your pot and you need to replace it - see logic!! Just this once mind.

YAY Nell!!!!!! Terrific news that you've joined the human race again and are doing normal things! :j I'm thrilled to bits for you - the family too!!

Ah...but, Emily, you never know where the lottery's concerned now do you! Though I think it's my turn before yours...don't you think. Thought so. :j

Oh here we go he, ALM, dish the flannel before the dirt!!!!! :mad: Ah, all the best with it and I hope it's a success - BUT - if any of our lot get over there...there'll be trouble!!! Mark my words.

Good for you, Delly, very well done indeed.

:eek: Don't you know that's shocking, nu1isit?!! I mean, you can see they huggers aren't all they appear - utter filth d'you hear! :eek:
Well done you on the 51p!!!!! :j You are to be commended as you're always on the go and working hard for your dear family. About time you had one of these. :staradmin You've certainly earned it.

Great minds thinking alike re Sams, then Rosy...at least we know what it says on the 1st post. You do don't you? :idea:

As long as you're happy, loxxee, that's all that matters. It's good to see you back though.

You've done brilliantly, Jellybaby, so don't get too miffed. Go careful tonight.

All sorted then, nanto3girls, well done you!

WOW!! :eek: You quickly got there, sexyshark! Brilliant potting! :j

Tidying and especially cleaning hadn't better be bad for us, mossy, I did loads earlier! Get this.......I even polished!!!!!! :dance:Oooops sorry, shameful lingo I know.

Ah, never mind about counting, mcjordi, tis the potting that counts...and you get more of a surprise that way. Not that you could ever remember, or at least, I can't.

A great amount, Kerry! :j You're right about roadkill as you definitely get loads of that!! You'll have to scour the streets of Somerset one of these days. No! Oh well.

Oh dear, claireyfairy, still if these things are going to come then best to get it over with before Christmas. Take care and have an early night. No, I mean a proper one! :rotfl:

Enjoy your evening, folks, whatever you're doing.

Should have worded that better, I took £10 out of the atm to pay for parking. Pot needs opening with a tin opener, no chance it will be open before next November.

Believe it or not I have read that post umpteen times :rotfl:I blame baby brain.

£2 for me today.

Small saw me sorting out purse and wanted to put something in her piggy bank too so I gave her everything I had smaller than a 50p and she put that in hers.

Eyebright

After reading the first 5 posts of names/numbers I have finally found mine!!!
I joined this a couple of years ago, but unfortunately life got in the way and I was AWOL from the site for a long time. Back now and more determined than ever! If you will have me back that is...

I've sealed my pot and have christened it with all the change from my purse, a lovely £5.80 :T Looking forward to see what I can save towards Crimbo next year!
