"Sealed pot Challenge" ~ 9

siju

Hello fellow potters

Had a week off last week and although we didn't go away, we tried to holiday as if we were away. Therefore, no electronic gadgetry, household chores etc was allowed and I must say we had a lovely break. Back in the real world today though. Will be reading back on posts and hopefully restarting my potting in the very near future. Happy Monday everyone

My shrapnel pot isn't sealed so I've just 'bought' £7 worth of 2p pieces out of it for the kids to waste in the arcades on holiday.

£10 added to my pot, called back a debt that was repaid today, (I asked for it back in £1 and swopped a £5 in sainsburys earlier when I bought milk)

So I have reached my target, but I'm going to keep going and see what happens, not sure if I will increase it, ill give it some thought...

Potted $7.50 today which included 2 $2 coins. My massive terramundi is still mainly empty though haha.
On another happy note I managed to pay $1610 off my credit card.

I have to confess I opened my pot and banked it in my savings account, we're moving house this week and I didn't like the idea of it getting mislaid/pinched in the process, I've put the total in my sig and once settled will carry on until declaration day

BUT I HAVE A WOPPING £675 SO FAR :j:j:j:

A few coppers in the pot from a purse empty (Non food budget money).

Just found a random £10 note in my money saving bag... To pot or not? I’m a bit short on funds for my food budget so far this month due to stockpiling toilet roll and kitchen roll from Makro (£27ish). Or should I split in into change and just pot half???

Very well done you TheCatsandDogsMother :j :j that is amazing!

Hope you had fun on your trip Automac

Well done on your good news Clairelm! :j :j

:eek: Mrs_MoneyPenny! dont let Sue see you dont have your pot sealed! you'll be on that naughty step with me when she gets back!

Well done on your total MummyTummy, and tbh I dont blame you banking it before you moved as something always goes astray and would have been heartbreaking if it had been your tin

EVkizzy, if your a bit short on your spends then hold on to that £10'er in the back of your purse or a seperate unsealed pot, and pot anything left if and when you know you don't need it. Don't leave yourself short just for the sake of the challenge

I had £4.67 in change that got slung in the tin last night im a bit short on the change front recently, I dont know where all my change is going! :eek: my pot is most upset
