"Sealed Pot Challenge" ~ 8

DreamerHelen

Morning Ladies and Gentlemen


Well I'm feeling okay this morning except for a sniffly nose...but I'm not too worried about that....Feeling positive....Got Paid from one of my Jobs today and have spent the last hour sorting out what I'm doing with it and making payments towards various things....so that feels WONDERFUL


Also managed to Pot £6.70 this morning...so I'm absolutely thrilled with that....and I definitely do NOT need to go anywhere near my Pot (in terms of opening it)....I really feel that this Year will be my Year to be able to save a HUGE amount...and I'm already so looking forward to November to see how much I've managed to put in!!


Welcome to the Newbies...Hope you have MANY Years of fun here with us


Sue...I just wanted to say a HUGE Thank You to you....This Challenge has changed my Life....and also the way I save...AND it is so lovely to know that I have people here on this Thread that are supportive and lovely and cheer me up every day...So I just wanted to say a BIG Thank You....


I have 2 different Work things to go to today....but it's actually a fairly light day, which is really nice....


"See" you all later on xXx

Only £1 each at Sainsbury's - so 2 for £1 when using a coupon. You can get one coupon per email address.
Perhaps pot what you save??

Thank you for this Lynsey. I'm off to get my two soups today. I like the Covent Garden soups - they have some really interesting varieties.

NSD for me yesterday so no potting. No roadkill either but now the kids are back to school I'm sure there will be more about.

I was so excited :T:j:T:j today I was out delivering and got out my car did the delivery and there by my car was a piece of folded paper covered in mud and wet but I spotted the £10 in the corner and sure enough someone had dropped £10 I bought it home and it's drying on my fridge attached by a magnet it's going straight in my pot. My neighbour and friend thinks I'm bonkers on how excited I was to find it yayyy my biggest ever road kill I normally don't even spot a coin DD grabs those lol

This has nothing to do with my sealed pot, although I am wondering if it is wise to have one in the house although it is hidden.

I noticed today that one of my rings is missing. I keep four rings in a bowl on my dressing table and noticed today that there are only three in there but I cannot pin down when I last noticed there were four there. If someone has taken it, then it can only be the one person (a relative who is staying here temporarily) or a friend of hers.

I have banned her from bringing friends back as she does it without telling me and a year ago she brought someone here when I was away and money and some clothing went missing and she denied even being here at first, but when faced with proof, said she was no longer friends with the girl who had taken things from another friend's house.

2.94 tipped into the pot after this morning's trip to Lidl.

Oh Frogletina, that's terrible! How sad that someone who is either your guest, or a friend of someone who is a guest in your house might do that. That is a serious betrayal of trust. Your things should be safe in your own house. I'm so sorry to hear that. I can't think of a nice way to resolve it either, it is bound to lead to confrontation, which is never pleasant.

£5.02 potted. £4 from my 4 NSD and the additional £1.02 was lying in my purse after shopping.

NSD for me so a shiny squid nug into Monsieur Pot

I don't know if anyone ever did Virtual Sealed Pot but I've taken that thread over from keza as she hasn't got time to run it this year. It's here if anyone wants to join this year - linky
SueUU - hope it's ok to link to it? I know a few sealed pot people used to do both. I'm a bit lonely in there by myself at the moment - it should have started over a month ago which may be putting people off

AND I've joined the make £1000 from selling stuff thread today - full of New Year resolutions I am

And if anyone knows how to turn that long link into something that says 'linky' I'd be grateful for the tutorial



Keeeeeeeeep Potting! #strictlyfan
