    Evening all and a warm welcome to all the new peoples :hello:


    I potted £10 into the pot today for the week.


    In case folks are wondering why I do it this way it's because I use a card for all my purchases to get the cash-back and so don't have change on a regular basis. So each week I draw some 'emergency' cash for things like having to get a taxi or such like and then pot £10 from that every week, as I don't usually use it :D


    I am going out the morrow for a meal as it's my birthday on Sunday. My darling DH is being very mysterious and won't tell me where we are going - just said to be ready to leave the house at 7.00. I'm like a big kid as I love surprises :rotfl:


    Sue - hope that your daughter is improving.


    Hope you all have an absolutely fabulous weekend. Stay warm and dry

  • The new housemate bought me a chilli plant today, it's been added to the collection I've started since Christmas. This is the longest I've had plants live for :)
    Have potted two $5 notes this week, they are a nice surprise when I break my little tins open.

    Morning all,

    Quick check in, I'm still with you. Until this week, I'd potted nothing since the week before Christmas :-( but I potted 5 nice £2 coins yesterday that I'd been keeping looee in my handbag.. So I'm off again at least. Mind you, I might regret that in a few hours, puppy has been poorly with gastroenteritis last couple of days & I bet the 3 injections will be £20 each (at least) plus two consultations..... *sigh* ..... She's almost back to normal now though thank goodness. I'm not really complaining, I'd do anything for my girl.

    Hope you all had a good Christmas.... seems like ages ago now xx

  • Hi, I have potted £4.73 this morning. That's money left in my purse from last week's pocket money.

    It would have been more but I was tempted to buy a bag of Cinnamon Ball sweeties yesterday - £1.19 they cost me. They were absolutely worth every penny and I have lots left. I had not tasted them for years.

    Till next week .....

  • Potted about 40c yesterday - every little helps!

    Convinced OH that we do not need to go wandering around the shopping center - hence saving some money hopefully.

    I'm off later to get weekly groceries and then I'll be potting change

  • Sorry, haven't been on here much lately as absolutely zilch to pot:o. On the plus side, I haven't been shopping and spending anything even on groceries either so not all bad;)

    I had some pottable coins in my purse the other day (which would have been potted, honest:)) but OH suddenly needed as much loose small change as he could scrape together, goodness knows why, he wouldn't say and I know better than to try to fathom the workings of his mind:rotfl:

    I managed to find 93p in pottable shrapnel which he swapped for a £1 coin. I made a small profit on the deal but don't pot £1 coins so my gain is the pot's loss:(
