"Sealed pot Challenge" ~ 9

Sue-UU

Hellloooo again all SPCers!!!! I hope you're all enjoying a really lovely weekend, despite the awful weather! :eek: What a weekend it's set to be too, I just hope you all did as I did and really made the best of yesterday! :grinheart

I see you're keeping as consistent as ever, Chutney, very well done!

Lovely to see you, KONG, and it's good to see you're keeping up with the saving.

I'll take your word for you being the shrapnel queen, Dizzy Imp, as though I'd argue about it! Keep it up whatever you get, it all makes a real difference!

Anyway....In Potting news.....Things are a bit financially difficult here but I AM keeping up with everything in terms of Bills, Food, Rent, Debt Commitments, etc.....that makes me really proud....but the downside is that I can't Pot a lot....just little bits here and there....BUT, the GOOD side is that I haven't had to take money OUT of my Pot, which is a GREAT thing!! :A

Sue, I'm so glad that you had a wonderful time at the Wedding....They can be such precious occasions with very special memories for you to cherish...

Hello there, Helen! I was hoping all was well with you so I'm really pleased to see you again. Well done with all you've been doing, and all the best in definitely qualifying in or around July! You do your very best in potting, though I know from your own thread you're doing the very best for yourself full stop so keep it up!!! :T
You are so right about my DGD's wedding, all weddings in fact, they are fantastic occasions and bring out the very best in people! :heartpuls

<<<"Only 20p to report Sue">>>

It doesn't matter how much it is, f0xh0les, the most important thing is...that you're saving! :j

Have lost count of how much money but just all loose change in my purse after shopping. I have never had a sealed tin before and can't believe how heavy it is. Also potted 2p roadkill ��.

Not to worry about losing count, plumduff, in many ways it's a good thing. It's so good to hear that, having never had a sealed pot before, you're doing so well with it!! Keep potting all you can!

Shhhh. Don't tell hubby but tonight I was sorting out washing from his sports bag ahead of the end of the season (winter sports) and I just happened to come across £21. What's his is mine and all that.....could have been worse for him as he dropped £10 just before that but I was a good girl and returned that one!

oooooh, what a good saver you are on behalf of your hubby, MrsC....tobe, how could he fault you! So long as you gave him his £10er he won't be suspecting a thing!!!! :rotfl:

It's good to see you dropping in, Baby Angel, and if feeling guilty helps you pot a lot more then feel as guilty as is possible!!!! :rotfl:

I'll be 21 again tomorrow so although everyone else is working, I'm taking the day off :beer: I'm going to bake a cake ready for the family get together this weekend.

Put £1.00 in my pot last night and have another £3.12 to add to it tonight.

I take it that means you had your Birthday yesterday, siju, so here's wishing you A Very Happy (though belated) Birthday! :bdaycake: The wishes may be late, but the meaning is just the same I promise! Have a super weekend with the family and enjoy that cake! :j Great savings BTW.

I know it's very hard for you right not, Saver-upper, but try hard to focus on the lovely things that ARE done ie. the kitchen floor looking so absolutely beautiful! Imagine being in it later on, it'll all happen maybe not as fast as you'd wish, but....! For now, enjoy your Easter with the young ones. It's lovely to see you.

Brilliant saving, 12 month challenge!!!! Well done in clearing up after hubby!! :j

Our DGD & her DH return home from their honeymoon tomorrow! We had another Face Time call yesterday, so lovely to see her the gorgeous scenery too. :grinheart

Take care, everyone and many {{{hugs}}} to all those feeling poorly or a bit low, look after yourselves.

Have a WONDERFUL EASTER, Potters, and really make the most of it.:grinheart Keep up the potting too! :dance:

Hi everyone :hello:

I've been potting away faithfully.. No idea how much is in the pig, but she's getting heavy so I think that's probably a good thing. Today I've potted a £20 note (first one!) as someone returned the money I had lent them unexpectedly. So before I can spend it, into the pot it went!

Happy Easter to those of you that are celebrating it xx

Hi everyone, Happy Easter!! :easter:

Just going through my purse and found a £2 coin that I didn't need so have popped that in to the pot!

Good afternoon everyone! :hello:

What a busy week - out every night, including helping at a school dance showcase - but still time to pot, if not time to get on the laptop to tell you about it.

DH is still leaving cash lying around, so finds it disappearing little by little from his bedside table into the pot. I received change from buying a school lunch, so that's gone in the pot too (along with other bits of shrapnel from my purse!).

Have a great Easter weekend.

Sorry I've not really been active this month. Gave up sugar for cancer research and it's left me really tired and drained. Still been potting, though! Over the £100 mark now, Christmas is going to be a breeze at this rate! :rotfl:

Hope everyone has a lovely Easter

Sorry, what is this 'change' you speak of?! Not sure my DD grasps that concept when I give her lunch money (although admittedly it's only once a week)!! :rotfl:
