Hello Potters

I have £9.32 to pop into my pot today. Enjoy your weekend everyone.SPC 16 - #09 Totals: 2014 - £264.51 2015 - £207.50 2016 - £396.79 2017 - £369.49 2018 - £484.24 2019 - £309.90 2020 -£282.06 2021- £1839.89 2022 -£1627.830 -
Just popping my head around the door to say hello. :wave:
I have been dropping the odd bit of shrapnel in my pot but we tend to pay for everything on the Amex to build up air miles so there's not that much going in.
I hope everyone is doing well and your pots are getting a bit more food than mine is!Saving for Disney again, oops why book one Disney holiday when you can book two!:starmod: Emergency Fund Savings - #148 - £10/£1000 1% :starmod::xmastree:#083 SPC6 £63 - SPC7 £90 - SPC8 £63 - SPC9 £54 - SPC10 £26 - SPC12 £70 :xmastree:0 -
