    Can I join and get a number please?

    I have just bought 4 Tins for £2 £1 silver and copper so this will keep me motivated and stop me using those pennies at work on to much coffee/vending machine.
    You're very welcome to join us and looks like you've made a good start with the tins :)


    Our venerable and revered leader Sue-UU will pass by and give you a number, which you add to your signature and keep forever.


    Please read through the first post, as it's full of interesting and useful information.


    We all love to hear how everyone's doing, so pop in as often as you can and keep us updated with your potting news. Good luck with the challenge

  • It's my birthday :) which means ice cream cake and sparklers :D on the downside my family are holding my presents hostage until I head down for Christmas :(
    $3 potted from the buying of birthday treats and I finally got started on the Christmas shopping (going in with some of the family to buy nan and pop a new kitchen) just two weeks left for getting the rest *silently panicking*
    Number 495 :)
  • Morning Everyone ... :)


    Sorry I didn't come back yesterday....I had my ears Syringed at the Doctor's and it affected my Balance Disorder and made me feel very dizzy and quite sick....but thankfully I'm feeling better this morning .... :)


    I managed to Pot 70p yesterday....It would have been more but my Mum has been sick for the past couple of Days so I bought her a small bunch of Flowers from Sainsbury's to say I hope she feels better..... :D

    Hope everyone has a nice weekend. My brother, his wife and boys are coming down from Somerset for a few days so will be nice to see them. My Mum and I will be with them at my sister's for something to eat tonight. Will be nice to see them.

    Been a week since I've potted anything; Christmas has got in the way!! At least, thanks to the SPC, I have a nice amount for Christmas presents etc.

    But, all is not lost... I've potted 50p. :)

  • 5p roadkill from Tesco yesterday. I find that loitering round the self scanning section in my local express store is great for pennies other people don't want :D

    Can't believe I didn't join the forums sooner.. I've used the website for years and wishing I had!
    Reading so many little snippets of what you all do to is really helping me with my own financial journey.
    From potting to budgeting better and saving.
    Thanks :)

    It's my birthday :)

    Happy birthday to you :bdaycake: I hope you are having a lovely day.

    Had such a dark gloomy day here yesterday that when I went home I decided to do a bit of dusting in the bedrooms; it cheers me up to feel at least the house is clean! Lucky I did; 60p was lurking on my DH's bedside cabinet (same thing happened last week, so I think I will have to check it more regularly). :rotfl:

    Have a lovely weekend everyone :xmassign:
