Sealed Pot Challenge ~ 12

[Deleted User]

OH has left 70p laying around on the bedside table for a few days now, so it'll be disappearing into the pot :rotfl:

I’d like to join again this year please! It really helped me last year and has motivated me to save! Thanks!

Still not withdrawn any cash abd hubby will buy top up milk and bread on debit card so still cash free zone.

Have had a Facebook sale so potted £8 this morning. Desperately trying not to count it, but my will power is weak :rotfl:

Hi.
I've just signed up to mse after reading all of your posts, I'd really like to join this group please.

You've inspired me to try and save as I'm due number 3 in 20 days :eek: and would like a pot to put towards a car at the end of the year.

Ive already super glued the lid of an old biscuit tin down and stuck about £15 in change in there

Thanks x

RaspberryJamming - I'm so very pleased you've been so inspired by us, and I hope you achieve your goal in saving for a car! You've made an excellent start!! All the very best with the birth of No 3, do let us know when he/she arrives.


Many thanks indeed for welcoming our latest members, 3forholidays :staradmin and Frogletina.:staradmin Another lovely gold star for you both.


Well Miss DM, thank goodness for change potted due to breakfast bought because of the need to go to work during Christmas! :think: As much as it made me giggle it was certainly a great way of feeding your pot too!! :rotfl:I'm sure I should be guiding you away from expenditure, but.. what can I say!! A very happy New Year to you!


You're very welcome, ploppy. Don't knock the 95p potted, it's still a great beginning to saving for Christmas! Time will tell whether you'll need another pot, for now be content... and proud!! :grinheart



You're off to a pretty good start, dawnyblue, so where are you hunting tomorrow! Good work.


Really good to hear, datlex! It's surprising just how different we think when saving.



Well done in rewarding yourself for an NSD, Iheart!! I think it's a really great idea.



You're doing brilliantly, Raggle, by anyone's standards! Good work with the crisps. :rotfl: I'll leave you to debate your 'how to pay' dilemma, but hopefully you'll still end up feeling fluffy!!!



Nice work with the £1, NannyG.



Very well done, Llynsey!!

Hello Sue

So sorry to have gone missing, real life got in the way. SPC11 has a lovely total which was so useful at Christmas - I just need to find the old envelope which I wrote the number on and then I’ll declare it. Please can I join SPC12 - I’ll need a new number though!

Thanks!

Hello there Seaotter, it's so good to see you again!! :wave:I honestly thought you'd left us, but I understand what you mean about life as it does get in the way at times. Sorry to have binned you but I just thought you'd gone. A very warm welcome home, your new SPC No is 114.


Such a shame your OH isn't more careful with his money, SSDD23, I see you have no option but to pot it!!!! :rotfl:

It's ok twigletsum! You don't need to rejoin every year. Your No is still 045. I'm really pleased you were so motivated by us here at SPC, long may it continue!! :j



Be good Choccygirl and treat your pot like a bomb, knowing that it will explode should you dare to touch it!!!! :eek: :rotfl:Great savings from your Facebook sale! You're doing really well, be sure to keep it that way!

Hello all Potters , have a lovelyWEEKEND!! Save well if it's possible. :dance:

Sue

NB folks: Opening date for SPC 12 will be 31st October 2019


Anyone wishing to join us, it's NEVER too late, so please just ask, you'll be made very welcome!

Haha that's a great idea Sue! The suspense is killing me and we're only in January. Hubby did say at least you know what's in the bank so tin should be a surprise. My excuse is that I may have to increase my target if it keeps going ok.

Another 50p potted today when OH came back with some change from his trip to the village.

Loz2018

I’ve added a couple more coins to my pot so now have £45.30. I don’t think I’ll be able to add much in the next few weeks as my budget for January is quite tight but I’m hoping to get over the £50 mark by the end of the month.

Hi everyone
Not been out again but as Ive started to have a bit of a clear out and found 2p in a drawer so that's been potted!! not much but 2p more than what was in the pot this morning.

Not much potted here yet. I did find a bag of change the other day that no one knew where it was from, so it went in the pot.

RaspberryJamming

Thank you for the warm welcome everyone!!

Sue: I think I've added my number to my signature, I don't know how to tell on the mobile site. Also (I might just be being dense) but I can't see where to subscribe to the thread, I'm using my mobile.

On the plus side I managed to raid hubby's pockets when he got back from work and scavenged the grand total of.. 6p :rotfl:
