    I bought a big tin from the £shop and have found some more coins to put in. Going to stick with silver for this as I have a massive jar of pennies I have had for years.

    Thanks for our lovely new home Sue :T

    Found my 1st roadkill of the challenge, a shiny 1p outside Asd@
    I reckon that's a good omen :)
    Also potted a £2 coin. Happy days :)

  • 24p added to my pot,
    change left over from £5, I brought 2 monsters
    1 for me & 1 for my friend. I gave £1 to my other friend as she let me use her printing credit in college as my home laptop didn't connect to the college printers & there wasn't any college laptops left.

    and £1.50 i spent on harribos.

    I also found 14p on the floor which my friend chucked, so i took them.
    (she said she didn't care that tthey were on the floor) I rescued them lol

    Hi Katmum, absolutely you can join!! :) Sue is currently making copious amounts of tea for Sparky our counter upper!! But I'm sure she will be along shortly to give you your own lovely Sealed Pot Challenge number, when you get it, pop it on your siggy to keep it safe. ;)

    If you have any questions just ask or even better go to the first post of this thread which explains everything you need to know about our wonderful saving challenge. :D

    We are a lovely bunch and our regulars will be around soon no doubt, they are currently spending all of their SPC6 money on Christmas presents and possibly having punch up's with people trying to get the black friday goodies...or was that just in our @sda!?! :eek: :D

    Hi guys, am still around, feel like I neglected the thread last year but hope that I'll be around more this year.

    As I said on the old thread my Vodka bottle is still somewhere in the boxes of possessions packed and in storage so whatever the content of it I'll carry over to this year so I've a bit of a head start.

    Just need a job now so I've money to spend to generate some change other than road kill.
