    Hi Everyone, hope your all ok, some really good starts to saving pots.
    I notice there has been new numbers, have updated mine now number 017.Took nieces window shopping in town with my sister only spent £1, so £4 in £2 coins potted, plus small change over past few weeks. Have £25 in a holding pot, my hairdresser paid me the last repayment on car she had off me, so if don't need it will repot.Plus next time have hair done its free, for letting her pay as and when.
    Yes sue-uu its not 1 of jan yet, off to a good start ,with posting if don't post before will be back on new years day or just after.

  • Sue - Ooh a shiny new number 222 :D thank you for kicking us all into shape :beer:
    I should be able to remember that even with my baby brain!! Been having a right old time of it lately (which is why me and bumpy disappeared from the other thread) but we're back and ready to roll :rotfl:

    So I'm going to kick off my new pot with two shiny £2 coins salvaged from Christmas shopping :j

    And while I remember a warm welcome to all the newbies that have joined and also a big hello to the crazies (but lovelies!!) from SPC 6 :p

    Nighty night xx

    After getting some change from the local shop after buying papers and chicken etc, I just potted £6.81. Although I wanted to hold the new shiny 3 x £2 coins forever. They look so nice and attractive, well for a coin anyway haha. Am I mad? :rotfl:

    I can't wait till opening day next year already haha. :j sooooo going to surprise myself with what's inside eeeeek! :A

    Happy potting all :j

    A Warm Welcome and :hello: to all the newbies and returners. Gosh it's great to feel part of a big saving family :D


    It has been a tough few years which resulted in me declaring myself bankrupt in March...... I think I have got myself together and looking forward to my auto discharge in March. I have an IPA that I still have 34 payments to make but see a future!

    QUOTE]


    It's fantastic to see you now feeling so positive and can see the way forward. I know that's the hardest part when you're really up against it. Well Done :T
    By the way, is anyone else like me? As soon as I could once I got in from work, I came and caught up with this thread? hadn't even had a cup of tea.......


    I like sitting down with a drink at the end of the day when everything is done. Then I can read through how well everyone is doing in the peace and quiet on my own.


    I just can't believe it's the 20th already :eek: Think I've been so busy with work and the course that I didn't really 'look up' until this week. Never mind, nearly all done.


    Potted my £1 today and a bit of shrapnel from purse. Still no roadkill :mad:


    Have a good Friday

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Morning all, hope all are well.

    Welcome to more new potters and those returning. Good luck and hopefully get 2014 Xmas for "free".

    Time is flying!!

    I potted some more £2 coins, 3 of them and 2 of them very, very shiny. lol
    Also a lonely 20p coin, so £6.20 in total.

    Jan/feb/mar are generally my "frugal" months and I'd imagine potting may die down a little ....................................... unless I hit those s/scan tills for more £2 coins. :D

    Enjoy the final weekend before Xmas, hope it's not too hectic!!

    Greetings to you all and extra greetings to those who have worked hard keeping this thread in order and making it as great as it is. ;)
