quick question please. I am 25 points away from claiming £50 from yougov surveys. Am I allowed to pot this?

Hi indigowarrior,
Yes,that is fine.I pot all my Pinecone survey money (£90 for SPC challenge #9)

Sue,you are a fabulous leader,and we love you dearly.But family must come first.I see your post saying that you have had lovely offers to help/take the reigns,but will continue on to see how it goes.Please do as you see fit.Don't feel obliged to,say,answer every post individually,or even log in every day.Between us there are enough of us on here regularly to give welcomes,set the rules straight,answer questions,put jakes-mum on the naughty step,etc :rotfl::rotfl:.We can tell you whose been naughty when you next log in :eek:.
I do hope,when the time comes to retire as our fearlesss leader,you will keep your #1,and continue to join in the banter.Just without the work involved that you do now .
Aww,heck,I am crying now!!

Well,I have spent this afternoon fussing around with money: re-counting and bagging up my pot-money for SPC 9,sorting out my "house-keeping" for November.Lots of swapping SPC coins with kid's money box money to fill bags to the right amount.Lots more swapping to make sure I could pot £2 coins (replaced them with 10p pieces-the shops will be pleased :rotfl:).I might have about £2 more to declare for SPC 9 than I thought,but will let the bank count it officially,and let you know if there is any variation,Sue.

I haven't bought my new pots yet,but as usual I will have one for £2 coins,one for £1 coins,and one for the rest.I did consider a "new £5 note tin",but thought to never spend a fiver,like I never spend £2 coins,might cut the budget a bit too fine :eek:.

So,after playing with my money all afternoon,I have set aside £9 to pot when I get new tins,including 2 x£2 coins,and a few £1.Looking forward to buying my pots.

Haven't we had lots of new additions to the family this week?I am sure it will be another record year (ontop of a new SPC 9 record).

Please could I join this challenge. Never done it before.

I'd like to think I could get to £200 as my target.

Do I have to tell you how much I put in? Or can I just add random bits of change?

Never done a challenge before

Hellooooooooooooo Pottersssssssssssssss

Must buy a tin, must buy a tin, must buy a tin, must buy a tin . . .

Welcome Louby40! you are most welcome to join our merry band of misfits Sue our intrepid leader will appear shortly to give you your very own one of a kind, not to be lost, traded or sold on ebay number to keep, care for and display proudly on your signature

She will ask you very nicely to have a read of the first post which gives you lots of very important information like what you can include in your potting money and the all important opening day

You can tell us what you pot or you can just chuck your change in, its entirely up to you, but we are a bunch of nosey so and so's so we do like to know what people are saving

So grab yourself a pot and start saving away, and if you have any questions dont be afraid to ask

I need a tin too Jakes-mum, have heard some people are getting nice ones in Poundland so I may have to wait till next Saturday to have a look. Been seeing lots of lovely non-sealed pots in places like Tiger and Paperchase, but I know I wouldn't trust myself with them. I'm just going to get a big ugly tin like last time.

Welcome aboard,louby40,
No,you don't have to count it up as you go-part of the fun is the surprise we get on de-potting day.

Never done a challenge before?
You will be addicted before you know it.Don't forget to keep posting here,though,because we are very [STRIKE]nosey[/STRIKE] interested in what everyone is doing.

And see if I've got any spare change in my purse.
