    Hiya all


    Had lovely lunch with friends at local Italian restaurant and we laughed and laughed. Brilliant - good food, wine and fabulous company. What a lovely way to pass three hours on a cold Saturday :laugh:


    Paid with cc so no change and so put £1 in my pot.


    Hope you all have a super Sunday

    SEALED POT CHALLENGE - #33
  • Hi, I would love to join in please! Will aim to save £500 please! Xx

    Welcome WifeandMummy. :wave:

    Sue, aka our leader, will be along to give you a challenger number and give you a formal welcome to our gang. Please have a read over post 1 on page 1 as that will give you the rules and regulations for the challenge. But please do ask questions if you need to.

    We will be opening our sealed pots on NOVEMBER 5th 2015 so please ensure you report in with your savings, even if you don't post very often it is still nice to her what people achieve and also we add each amount to the grand total.

    So good luck with potting and come pop back regularly and tell us how you're doing as we're a pretty nosey group, friendly too. :D

    I went out this afternoon which was lovely, no money spent as I was with a group of friends at one of their houses,however, I have agreed to go out for lunch tomorrow which will cost me a minimum of £10.

    As soon as I said yes I suddenly realised that instead of leaving me money to pot I will be over my budget. A bit of creative accounting is called for.

    This challenge is taking over my life! But I'm still going to go out...:)

  • Chutney86 - please note that instead of giving you the following No on the list I've given you No 23! I know that member won't be returning so it's fine to do so. I've also put you Target on, I hope you manage to pot that much - maybe even more! :D

    Thanks Sue :), I have updated my signature.

    Went out with friends yesterday, OH paid for everything and gave me his change when we got home, so £2.50 potted :).

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Morning all, just caught back up and was I glad to reach page 31. lol

    Welcome to more and more new potters - good luck with your savings.
    Welcome back to those returning also.
    Hope those that got put on the "naughty step" wore something warm!!
    Hope all are well, or at least feeling better.

    Xmas creeping up and I'm almost there with pressies. Off shopping today for food bits and bobs.

    Potted a £2 coin and 8 x £1 coins. More later, I hope.

  • Morning all. A very wet and windy morning up here in Cumbria....but at least yesterdays snow and ice has now departed so I feel safer going out the door!

    I went to a do last night. Bought myself 1 drink at £1.80. Was then given a free drinks voucher which I sold to someone else there for £2 (cheaper to them than buying a £4 odd pint). So my 20p profit has gone into the pot :D. Ha ha I'll make an entrepreneur yet

    I feel there is a lack of chritmas stuff so thought i'd add :rudolf::santa2::xmastree:x
