Evening everyone :hello:
I've been AWOL from the thread - and the site - for the summer, but I'm now back home and back on it! Steady potting has still been going on, even if I haven't posted. :beer:Sealed Pot Challenge #021 #8 975.71 #9 £881.44 #10 £961.13 #11 £782.13 #12 £741.83 #13 £2135.22 #14 £895.53 #15 £1240.40 #16 £1805.87 #17 £1820.01 declared0 -
Nothing potted today, am talking to DH about whether I will continue with the challenge next year as my thief has helped themselves again and i'm so upset as just like last year it really ruins count up day for me (one of the very few days of the year I really look forward too) as last year I was like 'yay, i've saved x amount of money BUT it should have been y amount' and I am feeling a bit like, whats the point if its not funSPC No 002 SPC(3) £285/£250 (4) £519.84/£500 (5) £768.32/£500 (6) £911.30/£600 (7) £913.23/£600 (8) £1184.82/£750 (9) £2864.04/£750 (10) £3846.25/£1000 (11) £1779.72/£1000 (12) £1596.55/£1000 (13) £1534.70/£1000 (14) £775.60/£1000 (15) £700.20/£1000 (16) £2081.34/£1000 (17) £1691.15/£1000 (18) £225/£10000

Oh Jakes-Mum...that's awful
I'm so sorry to hear that you have been robbed again....
I'm not sure what to suggest except that this Thread would be MUCH poorer without you....
Thinking of you and sending *Hugs*....xXx
I haven't got anything to Report....been a difficult Week both emotionally and money-wise....but managed to Pot a little here and there....0 -
Morning
Who is the thief Jakes-mum? Could you possibly do the challenge on-line next year, just paying the money into a savings account? It won't have the same 'counting up day' feeling but at least it's still saving.
Sorry you are going through this again.
