Thanks for my number Sue-uu
I found a 20p in the bottom of my fruit bowl today so that's gone in the piggy money box I'm using for this challenge. I know it's not much but it's better in there than my purse!!! So tomorrow I think I will have a hunt around for any more loose change lying about.

Thanks sue for the words of encouragement i am going to carry on going to leave it alone and keep adding money to it

That's fantastic news, theresamum, as you'd so regret it this time next year when you've barely anything to declare..or spend. I'm so relieved to know you're going to SAVE!!!!! :j

Well saved, Modesty, is your DH getting very much better in time for Christmas like the Drs said he would if he was careful? I really do hope so.

Sue, didn't you give Brass_Triumphant number 004 a few pages back or am I going a bit more doolally than I already am?

ooooh thanks so very much for that, jakes-mum. :kisses3: That deserves a gold star too. :staradmin BTW. Hopefully you'll (pleeeeaase) stay as doolally as you are as I couldn't cope with you being any worse!!! :rotfl: Anyway on this occasion you were the one that wasn't - it was me as was, though I had it all down right on the list, but forgot to change the No over on the welcome. Bless you.

Oh boy, I bet you were seething yesterday when they messed the bed situation up, still I'm pleased it's all sorted it out now and you're happy. Well done with the change found...and so pleased to hear about your DD, dear little mite. :A

Sue - I noticed you gave ravilious 004

You gave that No to myself a few days ago! Not to worry I can have a different No and I'll edit my Signature.

Thanks

Bless you for that, Brass_Triumphant!! :kisses3: I'd got it right on the list but forgot to change the No over on the post. So, if that's ok then, your No is now 009 if you can swap your other over on your siggie I'd be grateful. You've earned your first gold star for being so amazingly helpful to me. :staradmin Thank you so much.

You're right, 32b3, it's never at all easy to keep saving given the time of year, so well done on your potting.

Don't worry, stormpassing, you're not alone in finding it a problem. I'm so sorry to hear about your DH's loss of work, I sincerely hope he can soon get another; for now though tell him to relax and make the most of the break.

Great potting, lexbubbles, and if memory serves me correctly, that's your second lot of roadkill!!

You're welcome, Nannyg, and don't ever knock any amount you save, all money saved is brilliant...and not spent or squandered!!! :j

Good potting for you, !!!!!!, we look forward to seeing you at the weekend.

You've done really well then, benten, you did well in SPC 8, so no reason to believe you shouldn't do in 9!!!

:xmassmile I hope all you Potters had a lovely weekend, and will enjoy a great Monday Difficult to save at the moment, but if you can.....give the POTS a nibble! _party_

Hi everyone, been hunting round for spare cash and found 10p!!!!! So in the pot it's gone.

Off to knitting club in a little while, I haven't been going that long but the people there are really nice not at all judgemental at my knitting and we talk about anything and everything, we are a very diverse lot.

Haha, I am determined not to go any more doolally than I already am, DH can't cope with me now! :rotfl:

Oooo, I was not a happy bunny about my bed, and made sure the young man on the phone was well aware of my unhappiness am still rather peeved that my bedroom is now on hold until after christmas as i have no storage but cest la vie, it will all come out in the wash as my mother used to say.

DD is now sporting a rather funky blue plaster cast! They've plastered all the way up her forearm :eek: she only fractured a finger! :eek: she was desperate to go into school to show off her cast to all her friends and deciding who was going to stay in and play with her at break and lunchtimes this week :rotfl: who knew fracturing a finger was so much fun :eek:

Just been to Mr T as they have their boxes of Quality Streets (350g size) on for £1.50, which works out cheaper than their 754g tins at £4 so bought 2 boxes to replace the large tub of heroes I bought at the beginning of December that DH and DS have polished off between them! DD and I only got a few each the greedy beggars!

Anyway, money! do I have any money? *rummages in purse* Woohoo! I have a £2 coin and 39p in shrapnel :j into the pot it goes

evo5819

£1.79 potted today as change from the shop. My refund from M&S finally went in my bank today too so will be withdrawing that and potting £5 of it.

Hello again, GetRealBabe! Good to see you back again, though you're quite right - it has been AGES since you last posted - as I changed the entire list around 2 years ago as....so many people weren't svaing with us! :cool:
Anyway, if you'd like to re-join you're most welcome and we'd love to have you with us. Your new No will be 014. Please pop it on your siggy - in place of your former one. Thank you.

That's the way to save, Nannyg, whatever you can - pot! It's good to hear you so enjoy your knitting, the club too, though why would they judge your knitting...they too were not so good at one time! You enjoy yourself.

Ahhhhh, bless your little DD, jakes-mum, though whoever would have thought they'd put a cast on so high up, maybe something to do with the ligaments. Typical kiddie though they're so proud to sport it off to friends. I hope it wasn't the middle one!!! :eek: We don't have a Mr T but I must have a look for choccies at that sort of price, why not!!

Good to hear your refund went through, Evo, and....a £5er of it is now potted along with your other change! You're doing so well.

Times are hard I know, SPCers, but there's still some really good potting going one!!!

:xmassmile Enjoy a relaxing evening, Potters,and be proud of all you've potted so far during SPC 9! _party_
