As mentioned yesterday,I have a couple of tins for the sealed pot challenge.Today,I went to buy one for this challenge.I was very surprised ASDA didn't sell them.B and M had about 3 on the shelf,and they were dented.I was not near a Poundland,etc where I normally buy them,so decided it would have to wait another few days.
Tonight I remembered that for Mothers day my 7yo gave me a tin.Not a big one like I usually use,but about the size of a coffee cup,with a lockable lid. (just remembered I am not sure where the key is haha).So I am going to use that.DD will be very excited to see it being used.
And I am excited to have an excuse for another tin :rotfl:.
EDITED TO ADD:
have just put £5 in my tin.So up to date so far!SPC #36 :staradminx 8.SPC7=£751.10 SPC8=£651.04 SPC9=£843.00 SPC10=£872.76
