Evening
£3.18 potted today,
I have found my banking bags so I am ready to count. I was wondering what would happen if I didn't count any of the money, and just carried on potting. How long would it be before the floor gave way under the weight of the tins lol
Have a great evening everyone

Hi Sue, I think opening the pots earlier from next year, is a good idea.
My money is going in the bank,after count up, as we have finished our Christmas shopping for this year.0 -
Gosh I've missed so much and I haven even been away I've just been sewing instead of reading!
So hi to any newbies, and welcome
Well done to all those who've already declared, some good totals you must be pleased
I always struggle waiting for opening day so happy for it to be earlier next year - might even open early this year cos it's yoga on the Thursday and I'll be too chilled to bother with counting money :rotfl:
Sue did you say you've opened the reminder threads? Want me to bump like last year?

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.VickyA wrote:My bank bags are twitching in readiness. My local branch is being refurbished but is due to reopen next Monday, just in time for my visit next Thursday! :j :j
How kind of your bank to be so considerate about SPC shenanigans, Vicky.
Well done with your pot, GAP, it sounds so girly..so perfect! :happyloveI hope the Wedding goes wonderfully and you really enjoy the day, little GaP too bless her. :AEMMAP wrote:*sings* It's the FINAL COUNTDOWN!

Brilliant news about your change being *wanted* Ruth, saves you a huge job! :j I can see why you'd want to up your Target for next year too, so all the best in getting rid of those debts. Let me know when you're sure about it. Many thanks for quoting those necessary words to members too, and for helping so much on the reminder threads, you're a gem! :A
No, not long now, siju! :dance:
I'd definitely advise against leaving your pots full for another year..6 or 8, 32b3, just imagine it!! :rotfl: No, best not even do that.
Helllooo again, nanto3girls! :wave: The count-up date of the 5th seems to be highly popular, so much so that I wish I'd gone with my thoughts and changed it a couple of years ago. Never mind, it'll go ahead next year now.rosyq wrote:I always struggle waiting for opening day so happy for it to be earlier next year - might even open early this year cos it's yoga on the Thursday and I'll be too chilled to bother with counting money :rotfl:

Hi everyone. Sorry been absent for months -frustrating login probs due to my low tech abilities. Been able to read all your posts but not reply. I can feel the excitement building to "open day" . I haven't kept a note of my pottings so will get a lovely surprise. Asking myself for permission to open a week early but so far permission refused! Will I hold out?I'm the only one who is stopping me from achieving my goals! :wall:0

Have potted £2.25.Frugal Living Challenge 2025 Mortgage free as of 1st August 20130

Morning all!!
Last night i potted £1.73 and this morning £1.32. I counted my holding pot too which is currently at £295 so my total so far is £829.70 I have another pot that doesn't have a counter that contains only roadkill and sometimes my counters go wrong. With all that in mind I'm hoping for around £850 come count-up day.
I'm so excited!!!!!!
Notes from our lovely sueplease make sure your nos are on your siggies everyone!!!
