A £20 note, 2 x £2 coins and 3 x £1 coins in the tin today! I physically cannot fit any more £2 coins in my tin :eek: and I bruised up my thumb forcing the last 3 £1 coins in! Its a travesty I tell you! what will I do with any £2 coins I accumulate tomorrow?? They NEED to be potted!
Off to try and shake some extra room into the already vastly overshaken pot :rotfl:SPC No 002 SPC(3) £285/£250 (4) £519.84/£500 (5) £768.32/£500 (6) £911.30/£600 (7) £913.23/£600 (8) £1184.82/£750 (9) £2864.04/£750 (10) £3846.25/£1000 (11) £1779.72/£1000 (12) £1596.55/£1000 (13) £1534.70/£1000 (14) £775.60/£1000 (15) £700.20/£1000 (16) £2081.34/£1000 (17) £1691.15/£1000 (18) £225/£10000 -
Hello all! I'm still here and have been potting, just utterly rubbish at posting. Life has been somewhat challenging this year. I promise to do better during 2018!
Egg money has been regularly saved and banked when my pot got full (notes inserted recording these amounts) so looking forward to tomorrow!
Is there a new thread running already for next year?
Very excited xxx0 -

I've gone through all of my messages today to check what I've said previously and it has reminded me that I used some of the money to pay in cash for work I had done. I said it would show as virtual sealed pot money which I could add to my sealed pot money when declaring. It's with my cash back money which I also add to my sealed pot money.
I also added in a note that I would add money saved at the end of this year as I've budgeted in advance. However, looking back, I had money saved at the end of 2016, so that will be added and any money left over at the end of 2017 will be added to next year's pot. That makes more sense.
Looking forward to [STRIKE]tomorrow[/STRIKE]! tomorrow
