    Have managed to pot £60 from my salary this month. Need to see if I can save anything else from my budget but being good so far. Have managed to bring my lunch to work everyday and avoid the lovely canteen.

    Pay day at loooooooong last. Been to the cash machine and taken money out for the month so before I did that cleared out my purse so just potted £5.90. Congrats to Iheart on the new job. I found out yesterday I’ve got an interview for a higher grade in another department. Trying not to get too far ahead with myself as I had 5 interviews last year from Easter onwards, all for the next grade up, but not a sniff of a job offer. I believe I will get the job I’m meant to get, although financially I wish it would hurry up!

    No breakfast club again today due to snow (we couldn't get there in time!) so a reminder I need to pot £2.50, £13.50 I owe the pot.

    I'm thinking of checking the pot this weekend and transferring into my bank account so I can earn some interest :-) All going towards Crimbo!

    Hi everyone
    Still here and putting the odd few coins in my pots, its gets a bit addictive, I seem to walk with my head down just in case I spy some road kill and raid my purse every few days, mind you as Im doing the nsd challenge Im not going to the shops as often to get any change!!
