Fifteen pounds for me this week. Should have something worthwhile come November. Should actually get back to clearing my various outstanding Balance Transfers but this is less stressful.

My purse was starting to get a bit heavy with coinage,so thought it was the perfect excuse to have an end of the month (sort of|) pot-n-post
.
So I have just potted:
£7.52,including 2x £1 coins into my smiley-face tin,and
the rest in very small stuff into my cupcake tin (which I realised tonight is getting very close to the top!)
and 2 x £2 coins into my Minions pot.I love the minions.............
So £11.52 potted.
Hope everyone is keeping well.Where is Dreamer Helen?Haven't seen her for aaaaages.Don't make us sent out a search-party,DH :eek:SPC #36 :staradminx 8.SPC7=£751.10 SPC8=£651.04 SPC9=£843.00 SPC10=£872.76

Good Morning all Potters! :hello: I hope you all have a super weekend whatever you're doing.
Best wishes to all those of you who aren't well, here are some {{{hugs}}} to help you get better soon, those who may be feeling low too. Do know though that your wonderful SPC family are thinking of you. :grinheart
Another NSD day today takes me to 6 in a row SueMade up with how much better I'm doing with my money these days.
Very well done with your NSDs, Evo, it might not be great for your saving in your pot but I am absolutely thrilled to read of your pleasure with how you're doing with money these days well done indeed!! :j
Don't worry, Antomac, life is continually like a game of catch-up for us all with lead busy lives to lead. It doesn't matter if you put on last weeks the next week so long as you do so as it keeps others motivated as well as you, thank you and very good work!!
WOW, I've just seen your latest post, you're doing just marvellously, and good luck in sorting out your transfers!!!! :dance:
Wonderful work again, Lost, you do marvellously, keep it up - yes, I know, you will for sure!! :T
WOW Frogletina, that's a really humongous feed for your pot, mind it doesn't choke!!! Brilliant saving!! :j
Hi all. I'm still potting regularly. Just had an email saying I won £25 on last nights lottery draw which is amazing cos that's what we paid to fix the car door lock yesterday.:D I want to pot it but DH said we'll use it. :mad:
Special hugs to Sue's daughter. (((O)))
How on how uncanny, Modesty, isn't that what you call being paid in kind?!Such a shame your hubby has other plans for it, your pot won't be pleased with him! :mad: A great win and thanks so much for those special hugs, DDs getting more relief from the shingles now. :grinheart
I guess you'll become regular customers now you've found a cheaper restaurant then, Jakes-mum, I wouldn't blame you either. Well done with all that saving for your Uncle, brilliant work!!
Ahh, that blanket is absolutely gorgeous, you made a fantastic job of it and thanks ever so much for showing it to us, I'm really pleased for you!! :T
Nice work, Chutney!
Oh Lynne, didn't Wales work their magic well!!!! :j
Yes, I'm like you, I just adore Wimbledon especially watching Roger doing his best, Juan Martin too!!! :T Having said that our lads and lasses have all done well and gained more experience for next year.
Good work with the £10er!
How come you've got a smilie pot for your savings, Saver-upper?! :mad: I want one of those, not a minions one but a smiley one, so come on fess up....where did you get it???!Not telling could result in coming to take yours hostage!! :mad: :rotfl::rotfl: Very good saving!!
Don't worry too much about our Helen as she is very busy trying to get finances in order; she also runs a separate thread for that purpose here on MSE and is quite busy with that, helping others on it as well!
£15 in the pot after shopping!! :j
Be sure to thoroughly enjoy the WEEKEND, Potters. Don't forget though...keep feeding your pots! :dance:

Sue,I bought the smiley-face tin at either Poundland or B and M.I have tried to look at both their websites to see if I could remind myself which shop I got it in(bought the 3 tins between the 2 shops).My,the rubbish that comes up in some searches.At one stage I went to Poundland website and in search-box,entered "money box".Up came things like "box red nail polish","felt tips 20 pack" (cos they come in a box),"Tommy Walsh claw hammer (not sure why),and First View pregancy tests(!!!!).I also tried calling them money tins,sealed tins,and "Sue's sealed pot challenge tins",but nothing came up :rotfl:.

Hi everyone.
I've managed to pot $20 this week and pay off some of my credit card, so am slowly getting there.
My puppy turns 1 today so he celebrated my getting a cut on his cornea... Now he's had a vet visit and eye drops as his present. I don't remember my cat being this injury prone
Hoping to save money has its Uni holidays so can spend my days at home being a bookworm.Number 4950
