Evening lovely peoples

Morning all.
Some excellent potting going on, put in that extra effort and reap the rewards. Not long now.

Thanks Suu - sorry I didn't win the Lotto. Hope you all didn't build up you hopes!
My total will be lower than normal, but higher than I need. So, a nice little bonus and a free Xmas.
I voted to stay in the EU, so the value of the £1 is more annoying! Still a lot of uncertainties, but could come good!. Wish I had stocked up at €1.40+ to the £. Maybe next time?

MrsShazbat - I'll also be using UBER for the first time soon. A £15 credit for the first trip should help a lot. Haven't a clue how to use it though!

Potting for myself has gone better than expected. A few bonuses, including a very early cashback. The cashback wasn't expected until December. So' I've potted the cashback and made it up to £50. That's my £700 and I'm finished. Anything else is for next Xmas.

Off to Tenerife at 15.40 hopefully and not back until the 26th.
Catch up then.

Be lucky.

Morning,

I am so sorry I've been awol for so long - life took over there for a while! I will try to post at least twice a week from now on to keep motivated

I have been potting as much as I can, not sure if I'll be anywhere near my target by opening date, but on the bright side at least I have something put by.

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

I went back shopping again today with another £6 off voucher, but I then spent £6 on my lunch! oops!

However, I got some more discounted posh biscuits - the last time I got lavender shortbread and this time I've got dark chocolate and ginger thins.

I sometimes donate 5p coins to my son in law who has one of those large glass bottles which will take years to fill. He's a good son in law who always drives me home when I visit - hang on? is he just trying to get rid of me? :wave:

You paid for your lunch out, Frogletina?!!! :eek: Wow that's unusual for you, I was quite surprised and I'll bet you never budgeted for that, haha! :rotfl: However, at least you made up for it by grabbing more bargains so I guess you can be forgiven just this once!

Also very wise with your change in the pot to make £££s to make easy counting.

Re your Son-I-L, he sounds like a really lovely chap, though with your question well who knows the answer but actions speak louder than words.......you're done for!!!!! :rotfl:


Thank God for good neighbours eh, TheCatsandDogsMother! Though the culprits must be some real mean swines!!! :mad: Well done on the savings front!!


Good news about the job share, mrs-moneypenny. it'll be ideal if you save it as intended for the kitchen, great idea!


As you too are finding out, Plumduff, it pays to wisen up to the crafty ways firms has to try and weasel extra cash from us! Not long now eh?


Not much longer to be patient for, siju, so keep that saving up!!:dance:


Tis a jolly good job I know you and I understand you're talking about your little treasure, Hicksy, Lord knows what tothers were thinking you were yattering on about!! :undecided She's in a world of her own folks! :rotfl:


Hello again, 12 month challenge! Good to have you back again. A good job Frogletina jogged your memory about a new pot for your cash...tut tut. Good luck with your Total too!

Ah an absolutely great idea, Florence, you'll need it to count it all. :j It's a fantastic day for excitement, you'll see!


A brilliant amount potted, Chutney, bringing out the big stuff now eh!

Yes folks DON'T FORGET TO PICK UP YOUR CASH BAGS FROM THE BANK!!

WOW MrsShazbat just how much higher can your Total rise to I wonder!!!!! :eek:

Hiya Lynne! You've been unlucky in getting the extra rain up there, it's been bally cold here all week but not much rain....until now! Ah well, at least you've potted another £10er, no rain stopping play there!!

So long as you can say the above, Lynsey, then you've saved brilliantly! :T However, no Lottery win! Not so good, but no I wasn't banking on it! I hope Brexit will turn out well for all when it's all had time to settle, time'll tell. Have a terrific holiday!!


No good worrying, Happybeingme, but do as you're planning and try doubling it til declaration day; then make a firm promise to keep that up all through next year!

£15 potted post shopping!!!!

You're ALL saving amazingly SPCers, don't start slowing down as the greater your Total the happier you'll be!!!!!!!!!! :j:dance::j

Make the very best of a brilliant weekend folks. The potting won't last much longer for SPC 9, so keep hard at it!

Good afternoon

Jakes-mum, I hope Jake is recovering well from his accident

I can't believe it is only 3 weeks until we can open our pots. This year has gone by whilst I've not been looking :eek:

Still potting away, and looking forward to the 3rd. I am going on holiday next weekend, and there will only be 4 days to wait after I come home :j :j :j :j :j :j :j Can't wait.

I hope everyone is well

£5.20 potted this weekend, including another 20p roadkill picked up at Ashton Gate on Friday night.
Lynsey, you may not have won the Lotto but I did! The princely sum of £2.30, from a ticket that cost £2.50!
Keep going everyone, nearly there
