    Finally hit the min on PA so another £5.95 on the way to the bank account.

    Sue I know I feel like I've cheated taking the notes out, but I haven't spent a penny of the cash I've saved...which is a miracle! I took the same amount out of the joint bill account and transferred it across. I guess it's safer than having too much in the house. eBay bug is biting so I'm going to have a blitz and see what'll sell! I've still not been able to add any coins from change. All my balance is made from Quidco cash back, fb & ebay selling abd online surveys.

    Sealed pot bank balance £362.30
    Tin ???? Few pounds in coins age

    :oMe again, sorry! A £1.29 payment has just cleared from
    Quidco so that's been transformed across too. Bank £363.59:beer: I'm really chasing the £400 now and hoping a few eBay sales will smash that. I never thought this much would be possible with just 'extra income'

  • Hi,

    Managed to pot a few bits in my demi-john over the weekend.

    Hope everyone is ok?

    I’ve potted £2 today.
    I don’t have much planned for the rest of the week so doubt I will be filling up my pot that much.

    Still happily potting all my roadkill and the pot is rattling nice and loud now that it’s got some contents. No notes yet but I usually find two or three over the year so ever hopeful :p

    Found 20p in a drawer this morning so added that and then 70p change from weekly shop. Found a new container as hoping I might need a second pot before October. It’s an old milk powder container so I’ll do a bit of upcycling in readiness.

    Well done to all our Potters on squirreling your money away :)

    Very quiet on the home front at the moment but getting ready for a lovely weekend away in Blenheim this weekend. Thought I'd better empty my purse of all it's change before we go, or I might be tempted to spend it :eek:

    £6.58 safely potted. Have a lovely week everyone :beer:

    I’ve added £3 to my pot today so am now up to £50.

    I think I’ve got the start of a virus/flu that’s going round but am having to force myself to go into work tonight as I don’t get any sick pay.

    Hope everyone else is having a good week!

    I have managed to pot £50 so far this month. I am hoping to pot a little more by the end of the month but I have a really active social life this month (for a change), going to the theatre on Saturday and to Newcastle the week after to visit a friend. If I stick to my budget I should have a few ££ left for the pot.
