"Sealed Pot Challenge" ~ 8

Morning Everyone


I'm up at silly-o-clock again (and LoL to 32b, yep, there IS a 2am every day )....Gotta work in a little while....


I'm in a fair bit of pain as Abcess is still there....which is HORRIBLE!! But I'm hoping it will go away soon....all I can do is keep taking the Antibiotics and hope it bursts....


Managed to Pot just over £12 last night So I'm really pleased with that...My Pot is filling up rather nicely....and no temptations to raid it - I will NOT be opening it until the Official Opening Date next Year....


I have a Christmas Do to attend tonight so might have a little bit to Pot when I get home....should be a cheap one though as it's in a Carvery, just a tenner for the Meal and whatever I want to drink...and since I don't drink Alcohol it'll just be a coke for me which should be cheap enough


See you all later on xXx

Morning all. Well I just looked in my purse to find some change to take to work and guess what? There were two £2 coins hiding away in there. So I've grabbed them, along with some copper, and potted £2.03 ��now it's time for work. Have a nice day all and stay warm!!

Morning all, i haven't been around all week as i have been poorly

Potting news - I have £30 to pot but can't remember where from....... £20 from my mum for getting her some books, £20 from OH for shopping and another £35 from OH as he bought me a jumper i intended buying myself and a handful of change from myself. This brings my total so far to £178.36. I really hope i can keep this up! I really want to take the OH away somewhere nice next year, hopefully we'll have 2 doggies by then too


Hicks - Have you considered getting a lockable box to keep things in? I know you shouldn't have to in your own home but it might put your mind at rest for the future?

NobodysChild - your name is a great some too if you like sad country music that is

Sue - Thanks for my star!! I'm excited for friday

Helen - water is even cheaper!! That's all i drink when i'm out

Morning Helen, sorry to hear the abscess is still hurting, lets hope the antibiotics will soon kick in and kick it out!! :mad: Take a couple of painkillers before going out tonight, I know they don't always do a lot, but even if they take the edge off a bit it might help you to have a lovely evening. Enjoy yourself! :j

Well done, milky, 50p is GOOD!!!!!! :dance:

Well spotted, Kerry!

Well,I got around to phoning SSE this morning.THe upshot of it is that they are refunding me £118 for gas,and £52 for electricity,which I am pleased with.
I asked the lady to check that,based on this,I am paying the correct amount by DD each month (when they last gave me a rebate,my monthly DD for gas and elec also went down.)It seems I am paying right on for electricity,and a few pounds a month over for gas,which I could haver asked them to reduce and rebate.But I decided to keep paying the same amount,and claim back any excess in a few months time,just in case.I told the lady I quite enjoy phoning them up every few months to ask for money back:D.
So,in July this year,SSE refunded me £301.95,now they are refunding me £170.
This weekend I reduced my phone bill by approx £12/month.
Still got to chase up the gym cancellation,which I think they might be playing funny beggars about,but when I sort it,will save me £9.99/month.
Since October last year I have earnt £100 from Pinecone surveys (which works out at about the same rate as my day-job's hourly pay.
Lots of free money around :j.Got to chase it,though!!
Potting-wise,I have potted £1.31 this morning.One 50p piece,the rest tiny coins.

...I have been to get my first pair of varifocal glasses, and haven't quite worked out how to see out of them yet - I was trying to do a bit of roadkill scouring this morning and nearly killed myself, so short-term, my life is more valuable . Seriously hope I can see properly soon, I couldn't see my son on the bus and went chasing after a different child (it was the wrong bus as well )...

Sorry AH but I did laugh out loud at this. I don't find you nearly killing yourself funny, I think it is just the way you tell them :rotfl: Plus, I am at work and tried to stifle it so it came out as a sort of snort-cough.

It is snowing here and I just want to cry

£1.72 to the pot today, that cheers me up a bit

mcjordi

sue-uu basically put it in lol..
