"Sealed Pot Challenge" ~ 8

Nix143

Hey Sue, hope you feel right as rain soon XX

£1.67 for Hungry Mr Pot last night - he gobbled it down, nom nom nom

Does anyone else talk to their pot as they feed it? Mine has a real personality, I can almost hear his throaty belly rumbling yums as he chews up my change

potted another £2 odd from the shopping today.. im also hoping to bag my 5 stone award at slimming world tonight too

I do so hope you received the award you achieved, mcjordi, that's a mammoth loss, so VERY well done you!! :T I hope you're sooooo VERY proud of yourself!!!!! :j Never let it back into your life again!

Wise words of advice from Glitterbaby, Frogletina, be sure not to overdo things.

Thanks Ruby, I hope I'm free from it by Christmas, but still terribly chesty (no rude comments please ) though my throat is a lot better.

Be careful, Nix, and make sure no one is around first. Yes, I also talk to my pots, well the chicken, cow and smaller 1p cow, Nessie, she came back from Scotland.

OK then lovely Sealed Potters!! The moment you've all been waiting for!!

WOW :T:j:beer::j:T Well done everyone!!

Thank you Sue (and Mr Sue) for doing all the counting and, of course, running the thread

Looking forward to seeing Sparky back this year too. Hope Mrs Sparky is continuing to improve.

I have change in my purse but no idea how much (less than £1) and I will pot it when I get home.

:beer: Here's to £100,000 this year!!

Lynsey

Afternoon all.

Alan2004 - welcome to the thread and good luck.

Sue, what an amazing target and I'd imagine still some to come in.
Excellent savings - well done all. It really does make sense planning for next Xmas now - don't let Xmas get you in debt if possible.
The more that join and plan for the future Xmas, or for something nice (holidays etc), the higher the totals.

2 x £2 coins potted, thanks to the s/scan tills.

Have a great weekend.

Lynsey

Potted another £3.50 today so that takes total to £4.76 so far. Got hubby in on the act too doing his own :j

Sue - that is a great grand total saved.


A big well done to those who saved.

166million

Hurrah! :j:beer::money::T:A

It must do wonders for the economy when all the shrapnel gets put back into circulation the week after "Sealed Pot Opening Day" :rotfl:

oooooo what a fab grand total I do like when we beat the previous year

Am a bit grumpy at the moment as my oven is not working properly, its still getting hot and i'm still using it (haven't got alot of choice in that really) but its not getting as hot as it should again, and just wont cook joints through properly. When I rang the people we have cover with they said they would be out on the 9th Jan :eek: so had to pull the illness card out (really don't like doing that tbh) and say DS is coeliac so makes eating out difficult at the best of times, DH and I both ill as well so I need my oven, they rang yesterday and said they will be here on the 23rd Dec, so hopefully engineer can fix it and i'll have a proper working oven christmas day or not sure what we'll do . .

£3 in the pot today to make me all square with money owed and had 24p in shrapnel so that went in too, DD found 2p roadkill and has put that in her pot (she did offer it to me bless her but I couldn't take it off her )

Wow!! What a total!

Looking forward to being part of the next record breaking total!
