Hi all, I've enjoyed catching up with everyone's posts this morning. Just potted £9 in the form of 2x £2 coins and 1x£5 note. Extra shifts should be calming down a bit now so should be a bit more present on the forum.

I have to do the mother of all post office runs today (10 packages) so should have some change after that.

Ha ha the boyfriends face when I put the milk powder pot in the garage - thought they will make excellent sealed pots in the future well once I get a screw driver through the top ha ha! Potted £1.15p at the weekend but didn;t declare as been busy with baby and family visiting

Have a good week folks; I'm off to bed

Guys... I have an announcement to make...

I FOUND SOME ROADKILL

Went to M*rrisons after the post office to pick up some cat litter and there it was. Just sitting in the 'coin out' slot of the self serve. The most wonderful penny I've ever laid eyes on.

Also potted £1.33 in change from the PO/shop so that's £1.34 in today.

Since I started this 11 days ago, I've put about £10 in my pot and weirdly I don't even miss it. But then I've also managed to put £65 into my savings in that same time, in what has been my second-toughest (financially) month of the year.

Love to read everyone's posts as I'm cuddling up to the oil radiator on my lunch. It's nice to know others are out there freezing too :eek: How can I be so cold awake and so hot asleep?

Anyway, managed to pot a couple of pound today; makes a satisfying clunk now when I'm potting.

Hugs to all that need them :grouphug:

£10 note in the pot this morning to make up for using all my change in the hospital car parks :mad:
hope everyone has a great week, hugs to you all xxxxxxx

!!!!!! I hope your Mum gets better quickly, you must have been worried.

Potted some bits of change this weekend after a trip up to London to the theatre - Henry V at the Barbican - wow what an amazing experience! I know now what I'll be spending the rest of my pot money on after Xmas is covered - more trips like that!
I'm so lucky to live a short train ride from London

Re: the cold - I'm a bit tight-fisted about putting the heating on but I've had to put it on for a couple of hours this weekend - even a wheat bag (Edison the elephant!) and 3 blankets while watching TV wasn't really enough :rotfl:
I think the cats are pleased too :rotfl:

Potted a whole €1 today as well, and I've finally got paid!! Quite happy about that!

Although I won't be getting paid again til 24th December so I need to be careful with my cash!
