  • I've just counted my coppers jar and it adds up to £20.28 - im totally shocked at that - i've added it to my total. My potting will drastically slow down as ive put myself on a very tight budget, so im assuming not too much will be left, but im still gonna try to add as much as i can. Happy potting everyone.

    Everyone is doing so well.

    I am continuing to declutter.The other day I was sorting through some papers.About 6-7 years ago I used to look after a little boy for a couple of hours a week after school,and was paid by cash in envelopes.Well,I know I was very good at saving this "pin money",but imagine my surprise when I found 3 of these envelopes the other day,containing a total of £35 !! POTTED!!

  • Hi saver-upper good luck with the decluttering - i found an amazing method, here on mse, there is a forum for it, its called KonMarie Method. Im not saying it will suit you, but I think its worth a look

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Morning all.

    The potting band-wagon is rolling along and with some very impressive amounts.

    £3 potted here, a £2 coin and a £1 coin.
    Just had my annual council tax bill!! Hate paying all that and would much rather pot it. lol

  • CrimsonAddict it's called PiggyBank you put in how much you've saved so far and your target, it also calculates how much you need to save a day to reach your target :)
