"Sealed Pot Challenge" ~ 8

NoMoreCards

Thank you for the welcome and number going to set myself a very ambitious target of £1000 for Xmas 2016. I have a feeling I may get quite addicted to this

I totally agree with your sentence, owlet, that's what makes SPC so successful as people do start to realise that EVERY PENNY counts a huge amount!!!!! :j Thanks so much for your lovely words, I have to admit to enjoying it all, but especially declaration days with folk not having to worry!

Thank you Sue, I am so pleased with the amount I've managed to save. It has been so much fun as well.

I will be here for SPC 9, though I cannot guarantee to beat this year's total which was quite a surprise to me.

I have to say that it was only possible to save so much because there is only me now in this household, though my family members are increasing in number! Hence the need to increase the money needed for family gifts and birthday presents.

We ask for no one to guarantee any said amount, Frogletina, just in saving ever bit possible, and mostly, like you, they surpass it!!!!! People such as yourself as such an example to so many - believe me!

This is a VERY addictive challenge, NoMoreCards, that's what's brilliant about it. I've updated your Target - ambitious it may be, but at least it'll help you do all you can, and remember, it's amazing the ways in which you can save odds and ends which mount up marvelously!!! Keep reading the 1st post, I think it'll help a lot.

Well I'm sure there are far worse things I could get addicted too. After a couple of days on mse my challenges are sealed pot, virtual sealed pot and payment a day. Bring on 2016 !!!!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand we've finally finished counting and been to the bank!

Total for SPC 8 - No 032 - £1184.82

New tin started with the £4.82

P.S DH weighed all the bags after we had counted everything and they came in at 15kg!!

Amazing :-)

Sue-UU

I couldn't agree more, NoMoreCards, it looks as though you've made some wise choices there.

Keep a Total of whatever you save on virtual sealed pot as all you save there can be included with SPC next November! :j

Can you manage with putting your number on your signature? If not, go to the green bars near the top and you'll see "User CP". Click on that and from the list on your left you'll find "Edit Signature" it's there that you put "SPC NO ....". In time you can add other things to it, take a look at other people's to get an idea.
