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.

: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'Finally Debt Free 24/4/20230 -
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.CC Debt:£450 Emergency Fund: £1,500 Sealed Pot Challenge 2020 #042: £750 -

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.SPC #023 SPC 12: £125.86[/COLOUR]:SPC 13: £214.98: SPC 14: £297.41 SPC 15: £237.27 SPC 16 £335.39; SPC 17 £662.09 SPC 18 £20MFW #21 Mortgage start Dec 2015 £79,950; June 2025 £19,394.00 2025 OP £1589/COLOR]/£2,000 MFiT T6 #3 £19070/£25,500 (72.82%%) MFiT T7 #3 £2050/£21,930 (9.34%)0

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: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 -

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!CC Debt:£450 Emergency Fund: £1,500 Sealed Pot Challenge 2020 #042: £750 -
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.
