Evening Potterssssssssssssssssss

Well Dear Uncle came over on sunday and gave me 2 x £2 coins and then just as he was going home yesterday handed DH another 1 x £2 coin to give to me :eek: bless him, he's really taken my love of those shiny little gems to heart, he wont spend them and he wont let me swap for them either (I keep trying to make him but he wont have it).

Did the dreaded school shoe run, DS is now a size 8 :eek: and was pleasantly surprised that his shoes cost me £45 as last year they were £60! and DD still fits last years shoes :j :j so double saving . Downside (or upside depending on how you look at it) found some perfect shoes for when her feet do grow with proper built in arches (that she has to have as shes flat footed so she gets a lot of pain in flat shoes) BUT . . they are £75!! :eek: :eek: soooooo, money being put aside for half term when I think she'll be big enough to fit them . .
DD did manage to scam me into buying her an adidas jacket though (I firmly blame her brother! teenagers and their expensive fashion!!). Little sister has to look exactly the same as her idol, big brother so a big tear filled face and pouty sad lip later, teeny bopper gets herself a £55 [STRIKE]piece of tat[/STRIKE] highly coveted fashion statement jacket . . . hasn't been off her body since

Anyway, so 3 x £2 coins in the tin plus I have 1 more in my purse to join them £2 coin tin is getting mightily full! must fill it by November!!

I'm off to Ibiza to visit my lovely DS for ten days :T I should see a bit of sunshine


I have made £310.16 in the 'Make £10 a day' challenge this month, so that's £250 into my regular savings account and £60.16 into my SPC :dance: :dance:

I've potted around $12 this week, it's really starting to add up. Unfortunately I've also spend more money than I would like (my way of procrastinating uni essays).
Haha i was luckily friends with the housemate before I moved in Sue, but I'll admit that I got really lucky with the way things are.

Evening

I have potted around £30 over the past month so its building up. I am near the top of tin number 3 so number 4 will have to be purchased soon.

There is not long now until the end of this challenge is there? this year has just flown by.

I hope everyone is well

Afternoon lovely potter-peoples :hello:


Gosh - it's quiet on here atm. Hope all okay ??


Have emptied my pot, added it all up and banked most of it. Including this week's £10 there was £370 and have added it to my signature. Just some shrapnel left in the tin to continue when I come back


Hope you all have a lovely weekend
