Mattress in a box is an Emma mattress. It comes vacuum packed and rolled up then when you release the plastic wrapping it comes up to full size in about a minute! Pretty impressive; it was so small they left it in my shed and now it’s a full double which is reallllllllllly comfy:DSPC #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 finished the clothes shopping and had no change from it so nothing to pot from that. However, I did get treated to bingo by my grandad and won £40.00 so that went straight into the pot:rotfl:
Another hospital appointment on Monday so hopefully will have change from the carpark to put away:DSealed Pot Challenge #126 :heart2: SPC 2019 £424.00

Still around and potting away, doing better than I ever thought possible (maybe because I'm not spending so much on food!!!) DD1 has got a house, just waiting for the council to finish the work they're doing. DGD continues to run us ragged, bett er now though because his Daddy is working 4on and 4 off which means we have him at most 4 days one week down to 1 day. Hope al is well with everyoneSealed Pot Challenge member 28

Hello Lucy! Great news all around then! Great potting for sure...and because of certain reasons.
I'm so thrilled your DD now has her own house, that has to be such a relief to you all. :dance:
I bet you're relieved too about having a bit more of a break between DGD. They're such a joy, but very tiring too, dare I say especially boys, bless em! You carry on enjoying them Lucy along with your new life. I couldn't be more delighted for you. :grinheartHave a relaxing evening and a lovely Wednesday folks. :jDon't forget...some of those pots are soooo hungry!!

I put a £10 note in my pot yesterday as I haven’t got any plans to spend any money now until next week.
I changed my HSBC account over to a student account and will receive a £100 cash incentive next week. So when that goes into my account I think I’ll take out £25 to add to my pot.CC Debt:£450 Emergency Fund: £1,500 Sealed Pot Challenge 2020 #042: £750 -

Good afternoon Potters, I hope everyone is in good potting spirits. DH and I were invited to a surprise 60th birthday party on Saturday night and I grabbed a jacket from my wardrobe that I hadn't worn for some time and, very happily, I found a £1 coin in the pocket. Yippee for my pot. I've just emptied my purse and will be adding another £2.15 today. Have a lovely week 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
