"Sealed Pot Challenge" ~ 8

DeafLeopard

Please DeafLeopard, I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but please don't include any of the £15.17 Total already declared in what you count. PLEASE also pop your No 054 on your signature for me, it helps me so very much!!!

Well... I don't know where that money has gone because I certainly can't remember putting it in the bank,unless I have and just not remembered or have written it down... And I don't have it anywhere in my house at all?!

But it's a new year new start so It couldn't make too much difference either way. And sorry about my number, I forgot about that!

So far:
I've potted £3.26

Morning all.

OMG!! :eek:

It's all going on here!! Weight loss (well done), ring found (brilliant news), lost euro's .............. again (good luck) and lots and lots of potting going on. A great community.
I'm loving seeing all those £10+ amounts being potted - excellent stuff.
Call me sad if you want....................... but please just whisper it.

Hope all are well that are suffering or under the weather.

Potted just a single £2 coin from yesterday. But, still on target for that £200 by the end of January.

Keep up the great potting, sometimes not that easy at this time of the year with bills coming in!! Every coin (and note) counts.

This is excellent news. I am glad you have found it. Please warn her to return your stuff when she "borrows" them. Surely she must have heard you agonising over the missing ring these past few weeks.
How come she didn't say anything.

I only notice it missing yesterday - the dish looked 'different', which is the only way to put it, so I counted the rings and then realised one was missing and which one it was. She was in bed all day so I didn't have the chance to ask her, and when I got home she was out and I found it on her bed. It could not have been taken yesterday as she'd arrived home in the early hours while I was still up and she went almost straight to bed.

Thanks for the advice about asking her to return things after she has borrowed them. I don't think anything she does is malicious, just thoughtless.

Hi Sue, I completely forgot I had £75 survey money saved up from last year. Is it too late to add to the grand total?

Dh has insisted we put our savings in the bank when the pot fills up, after I told him what happened to Jakes-Mum and others, so we banked £40 yesterday. Still potting of course.

I hope you are feeling better today.

Hugs to all that need them.

Congrats to all with good news.

*Please pop your numbers on your sigs,it really helps.



olaf2014 - please note that instead of giving you the following No on the list I've given you No 73 I'm sure that member would have returned by now, and if she does, I'll give her a new one. Any help you want, please just ask!


A golden Star for, mummytummy :staradmin, many thanks, though "Boss and conscience"? :undecided Not sure if that's flattery or insulting, though coming from you it can't be the latter.

You're welcome to the help, Nix, to be honest I only just saw it. A word to the wise, if you're trying to grab anyone's attention, simply highlight the name or part of the question so it's easier to see. BTW, I've had quite a few stars given to me....but have a look at my sig...I've nowhere to put em! :cool:


Many thanks, scotmumof3, fingers crossed it's soon a lot better.

You've switched well into SPC mode, shangaijimmy, well done.

I'm delighted to hear you got the ring back, Frogletina, wonderful news. Do beware of your unlocked bedrooms though!!


Good to see you, Betsie, please see my PM regarding SPC 7.

With regards to the £2 coin, mine is not the double coloured kind it is the same colour as the £1 coin (not sure whether they went out of legal tender when the double coloured one came out. Tried to use it in a self service till but it rejected it!

That's totally weird, mumof3plusoh, I've never heard of anything like that, but still keep trying to pass it on where possible.

Woohay Helen, even MORE in the pot, you're doing sooooooo well!!!! :j Keep it up!!


Thanks a lot, Nicki_Sue, just the ticket.

Thanks for putting your No on, DeafLeopard, and well done saving.

No sooner said than done, Modesty, and VERY well done you! However, would you also C&P that onto the SPC 7 thread HERE so all Totals are in the same thread? Thanks a lot. Your DH is very wise, I don't blame him at all.

Have a good day, everyone, and to all our Scottish members - do be careful with the winds & rain the forecast, better still STAY INDOORS!!

Hi mumof3plusoh we used to have those coins up here in Scotland and I took a couple to the bank a few months ago with a pay-in I had and the cashier took them no problem. I'm sure there are some still around only problem is I think the weight is different than the new ones so the machines don't register them.
Hope everyone is having a good day. I have a day off so just cut up the old xmas cards for gift tags and shopping lists, made DD and I some lovely veg and noodle soup, the washing is done, the bins are in,the dog is walked,the dinner is planned, the hoover is hovering poised...it's amazing what I get done when DH is at work .
I am hoping for a NSD today as I don't need anything so fingers crossed.
frogletina glad your ring turned up

Thanks Sue.... Feeling VERY proud of myself right now....I'm not sure what has changed but there is something about my Mindset this Year...even with everything that is going on....and even when I'm not feeling positive I am STILL managing to save money and that feels amazing....AND I'm paying off my Debts too....


So all is good right now...I just have to remember these moments and the way I'm feeling right now, even when things are tough and my mood has swung the other way....


Still no news from the Hospital....but I'll let you all know when I've got a Date for my Op...just so you know that I'll be away for a couple of days...


I think I'm addicted to Potting money this Year I've Potted another £2.50 this morning....but that's definitely it until tonight or maybe even tomorrow....Not sure whether I'll need to spend any money tonight....certainly not while I'm at Work but I don't have a lot of Food in the Fridge but then again I'm not eating much at the moment with my health being the way it is....so I think I will be okay without buying much....We'll see how I'm feeling when I finish Work at 9pm....


Right....Not long to go now until I need to start getting ready for my Evening Shift at Work....So I shall see you all later on xXx

dreamingofmoney

A little purse tidy up and a little 25p into my pot. Am already looking forward to opening my pot in nov and counting up. Hopefully dh and I will have a great treat.

Take care
Xx
