    Taka,

    I'd win the prize - I haven't even finished making my pot yet :D
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Well my sealed pot is currently a forrero rocher (sp??) plastic tub which I was going to change the cash into notes and feed to my TINY terramundi style pot :rotfl: :rotfl: More than about 2 coins and I think it'll be full so its notes only going in there!

    Pretty much like that myself. Have been very good at not spending so far this year but that also means that I haven't got any change for the pot. Can't win, eh? I did put 70p in today though after I went to the post office!
