Not long now. 27th Nov bagging up day?

Just popping in to wish you all well over the last few weeks.

A few woes (missing cash etc) and some not well. Hope all has improved all round.
Welcome to any new potters.

I'm looking forward to seeing what the total is. Please post your totals as quickly as possible - I hate waiting too long. lol

Keep on potting.

Hair is now cut, coloured, dried and straightened and I forgot to get the biscuits:eek: I can't imagine I will get away with not getting them though. I will buy her a nice present when I go away on Thursday

That would have cost a fortune at my hairdressers. A gift is definitely in order!

Next time, when I'm clever enough to get extra money bags from the bank ready for the pot opening day, I will make a note on here of where I actually put them!!

I can't find the ones I picked up the other week for love nor money!! :doh:

Glad its not just me :rotfl::rotfl:

A whole £2 (well, 2 x £1 coins...) potted!

Sue-UU - hoping that your DH is on the mend.

Beside myself with excitement about 27th November! :j :j

GettingOrganised

Well I made the decision to count up today. I know it is a little early, but the money is going to be used towards decorating the hall, stairs and landing. We are keen to get this completed before December starts, so the end of November would be a bit tight for this deadline.

So, I'm declaring at £169.07

I am very happy with this as it should pay for the wood flooring for the hallway. Obviously, I would have loved more, but up until September, my main focus was clearing my overdraft. So, not much was going in and when it was it was mostly coins under 50p.

I will definitely be sealing my pot back up for next year and, as my DD helped me sort out the coins, she commented that she wanted to do it too. So, hopefully next year, there will be another junior sealed pot member - starting good habits early on

I will still pop on at the end of the month to see everyone's tallies - good luck to all of you for the final potting push.

Posted by Sue.Quote: NB everyone!Unlike sparky I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TAKE ANY BANKED AMOUNTS FROM YOUR SIGS, I'm trusting that you'll all be able to give me the entire sums you've saved when you declare on the 27th. Thanks a lot folks. Unquote.

£1.28 potted last night and £1.37 tonight.

Hugs and well wishes to all.

Just done some potting:
£1.60 "house-kill",and £5.90 from a family night out last night (and the best part is that it is change from £20 that OH gave me for the night out last night!The next best bit is that it included 5 £1 coins-I am trying very hard to fill my gold coin tin to the very top).

GettingOrganised - a fantastic amount! :j Congratulations!

I found another 65p in my purse, which I must have missed. How, I don't know! Anyway, it's now safe and sound in my tin!!!

You can do it jakes-mum, you know we all rely on you to set a [STRIKE]good[/STRIKE] example :T

Have potted a few more lovely £2 coins lately, mostly bought from OH, I don't know why he gets them and not me!

Sorry I've not managed to read all the way back, it's silly busy at work at the moment and I'm trying to make christmas presents so not much time at home.
You've made me think about my pot though - I have one pot for all coins, but I tend to agree that the lovely shiny £2 variety deserve a pot of their own so I'll have to see what I can do next year!
[Hugs] to all
