Hope everyone is well
I'm rushing round trying to fit too much in and chasing my own tail. I'm sure I keep seeing glimpses of myself turning the corner just in front of me!
Anyhow I have been good and potted my £20 in the 1p challenge tub plus a £5 note I won on a scratch card and a handful of shrapnel.
Hoping to put the bedroom back together at the week as I've just finished glossing the wardrobe doors, have a great weekend allSPC~12 ot 124

Evening all.
Suu - thanks and I hope you and your family are doing well.
Looks like some good potting has been going on. This year has flew over and October tomorrow! Only around five weeks until 'weigh in'.
I've potted £20 this week and today I've cashed in £20 from a cashback site. I'll pot that by next weekend and hopefully add a tenner or two.
Have a great weekend and be lucky.**** Sealed Pot Challenge - Member #96 ****

£4.02 for me this week. Not big savings this week (some weeks are better than others) but it all adds up. It includes another 2p roadkill picked up this week. My daughter picked up a pound at the Bristol City v Leeds match this week. Someone dropped it in the chaos when City scored the winning goal. She's not especially outgoing but she tried to find out who dropped it. Noone claimed it so she left it under her seat! I hope whoever picked it up in the end was happy with their find. I'm proud of her for not taking it but would have pocketed it myself.
When you read a report that 17m Britons have less than £100 savings a challenge like this becomes even more welcome. Thanks again Sue for running this thread and the great encouragement you give to everyone on here.
I think it's going to be very wet today in Bristol which is a bit of a shame as we're taking my cousin's boy to his first ever match. I hope he enjoys it anyway. I don't half waffle sometimes (on here, not in real life).
Have a good weekend everyone27/5/17 Mort 64705 BTs 1904031/12/17 Mort 59815 BT 1673007/04/20 Mort 49208 BT 1572128/07/20 Mort 47387 BT 1263414/11/20 Mort 45905 BT 10134 20/05/21 Mort 42335 BT 686811/08/22 Mort 32050 BT 2915Sealed Pot Challenge 16 Number 50 -
Hi everyone, don't post very often but still putting £1 a day away and spare change in another pot. Not sure how much is in the pot but it will go towards Xmas I think. As a family we are only buying for the dgc but as its my turn to host Xmas dinner I will be spending a bit on that (not too much though) and its a hm Xmas so that includes cake, biscuits etc.
