    I'm going out for lunch with friends tomorrow - I have £20 in my purse and that should cover it with some to spare. Anything left over will be potted when I return.

    I like spending cash instead of using my debit card. I transfer enough money into what I call my housekeeping account each Monday by standing order which I then draw out, and anything left on Sunday evening I put in my sealed pot.

    Tonight I put my small change in the pot as usual, it came to 74p.

  • Just about here in time for Morning Greetings :)


    Well, I thought the Film was pretty good actually....some things that irritated me but others that I thought were done brilliantly....Very tasteful I thought....as I was curious how they were going to Film it....I was impressed and will definitely be buying it on DVD when it comes out....


    Been having some trouble...I don't want to embarrass the Male Members of the Group so I'll just say that I'm having trouble with regards to health....But I'll just bear with it and hope that it gets sorted in time....


    I'm still managing to Pot....Can't remember exactly how much I've Potted since I last Posted....but I'm pleased with what I've Potted...and I feel a bit like that's the one positive thing in my Life right now that I can say I'm doing well with...


    Anyway...Hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday..."Chat" later :) xXx

    Well, I spent £17 for lunch at a local Indian restaurant. That covered a starter, rice and two side dishes, rather than one main and one soft drink. I didn't have enough for a pudding and decided to forgo a drink to finish.

    £3 left to pot.

  • 88p potted for me today. Tantalisingly close to a £10 mortgage overpayment - if only i could sneak them shiny 20p's out of wife's purse...

    Ok so wife's purse was fully guarded so no joy on those 3 20p's! Darn it...
    At work all day yesterday and other than dog walks I've barely moved today so a NSW (no spend weekend), still got 17p of road kill so I'm edging ever closer to my £10 target.
    MFW: Was: £136,000.......Now: £47,736.58......
