    I've potted £1.87, all change under £1

    This leaves me with £38 for the weekend which should be plenty.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Evening all.

    Miami - welcome and good luck with your savings.

    Helen - enjoy your meal and sounds like all went well with your op.

    I've had a pretty much a frugal month groceries-wise and my pot has benefited. I need to spend tomorrow though, especially the half-price diced beef from Lidl. February will also be a frugal month as my freezers are still well stocked - full of reduced bargains. lol
    So, I'm hoping for a decent February and then March and April is when the "Council Tax" starts again!! :(
    So, I'm making hay while the sun shines (so to speak).

    Anyway, potted 2 x £1 coins today.
    I'm loving seeing some of the large amounts potted though. I'm just glad I'm not a jealous person. :D
    Keep it up.

    Have a great weekend and pot anything you can.

    Things have been a little dry on the potting front. 30p potted last night though. I'd been to London and when I nipped to the loo at Kings Cross, there was still enough credit in the machine for me to walk through. :D Fingers crossed more will be potted tomorrow.

    I hope everyone is doing well.

    I have had so many NSDs recently (14 and counting) and I have walked around without cash in my purse which is why I haven't announced any potting recently. However, I have some notes in my purse which I intend to use for grocery shopping and will pot anything that is left from that.

    Have a great weekend everyone.
