    Afternoon all, Hi to all the new folk, hopefully we're a welcoming bunch :A

    Nothing to report for the last few days :o

    Didn't realise it was month end so I forgot to lift cash for my weekly food budgets (I go Sat-Fri), so when I got to Lidl on Sunday I had to pay via card!! On the plus side, I was pennies away from spending my full weekly budget, and my bank account is 'saving the change', so the pennies will get to my jar, just in 'virtual pennies' for now :)

    I actually found the remnants of the previous week's budget in my purse today, which was about £1.50 odds. so that will be potted tonight. And...... (wait for it.......!) A TEN POUND NOTE :eek: It was stuck to the inside of my envelope, I nearly missed it :eek: That bad boy is getting potted before I find a use for it :rotfl::money::money::money:
  • Hello everyone! I have encountered a blip in mine and the hubby's potting system...he went and put all his change into the pot and never counted it!! Argh! Now it is a total mystery what we have now, but I did put in a fiver the other day :) It will just have to be a big surprise for us come October!

  • Thank you Sue-UU. Have emptied out my purse today. Just kept back a few pounds for emergency parking :) Due to have a big clear out of all the drawers so will no doubt find change in these.

    Good evening everyone :hello:

    DH and I had a lovely weekend in Vienna at the Christmas market. Fabulous city - I hadn't been there since I went inter-railing with a school friend 19 years ago!!! Anyway, at Heathrow I was given a £2 coin (is it just me who does a little shimmy when you get a £2 coin in your change?) and on the plane I found a whole 5p! Duly potted both of them.

    Today I sorted out my purse and potted an additional £5 (approximately!).

    So, all in all a good weekend!

    Evening all

    I have all Christmas shopping done and wrapped. Go me :D

    Sorted my purse out and potted the change from there. Only around £3 but it's £3 in my pot and not spent/wasted on rubbish.

    Evening

    Well done on finishing your christmas shopping and wrapping motivated.

    I can;t recall Lynne saying she was ending her potted Sue. Strange that she hasn't updated on last year!

    I have potted some money today.
