Potted £1 today and a solitary 50p yesterday:) Last working day tomorrow. Looking forward to the weekend. Hopefully the weather will be OK, so I can get out into the garden again.

Welcome back jakes mum!

£31 paid into the bank - duly noted on my signature.

Then another £1 or so in the pot! :j :j DH assures me he's put another £4 or more in the pot too. His training is coming along!

Morning all, woken up to the "smog" here. Hope it clears and is as warm as yesterday.

jakes-mum - that trip sounds good. We'll have to go one day.
No holidays planned until October for us and unusual as we've normally had at least a short break by now!! See if any late bargains appear come May. Watching for Tenerife flights for end of 2015 / early 2016 when easyJet release next week (or week after). Hoping for some cheapies. lol

Dragon Lily - I'm hoping for some decent gardening weather.

Potted 2 x £1 coins.

Only managed to pot 22p over the last couple of days I had to use my card in tesc* as I forgot to take money out of the hole in the wall so no change :mad:
Glad you had a good time in New York jakes-mum :)
Hope everyone is well.

A gold star to you for a lovely welcome, Ruth, and many thanks for being so thorough. :staradmin BTW get your derrière in gear and get potting by running up ad downstairs!

Thanks for my star Sue I finally got all my change potted (signature updated, so so happy). I have been busy, I had my mums poodle to look after (who spent the whole night throwing up until 4am), 3 3 week old baby lorikeets to look after that needed hand feeding every 5-6 hours, my poor puppy has been castrated and is not allowed to leave the house apart from to go for a wee on the lead so is driving me crazy with his crying, he's used to being outside at least 12 hours a day.......... i know i know i'm just making up excuses......

Have been keeping tabs on what I've been saving on an iPhone app so I know how far away from my goal I am! Over half way now!

What app do you use?


Well we are roughly 1/3 of the way through our sealed pot year and i'm already 2/3 of the way towards my target!!! I have paid off my loan, just got my CC to pay and then i'll be officially debt free!! I'm hoping to beat my target and feed a nice big chunk to my ISA!

You are all doing so amazingly!

Potted £2.50 today -I thought £2 coins were becoming elusive? End of working week and having the afternoon off and the sun is shining!:)

Just noticed I had a gold star yesterday. I'm not sure what they are for but thanks Sue

Booooooo, I have officially potted all my change. Not to mention the fact I've been working all week so have spent a grand total of 0p. No need to draw money out which means no cash to pot. Ugh.

I may get my hands down the back of the sofa to find a solitary penny just so I feel like I've achieved something :rotfl:

Well just sorted out my purse for the week, put my £4 for bus fare back in it and counted up the rest of the change ready to pot.

£2 x 1
£1 x 2
50p x 1
20p x 3
10p x 2
1p x 1
Total is £5.31 and my weekly target is only £5!!

I also picked up a christmas planner from lakeland, they have discontinued it so my local store had it for only £2.99. It has sections for gift ideas, cards, addresses and even slots for coupons/gift cards. This year I will be prepared!!!

Hope everyone is doing well!!!
