  • £4 in for me, from the great grandparents for the kids and then I just transfer the money direct to their accounts otherwise it gets spent on comics/sweets ;)
    (They are only 2 and 3 but already know a £1 coin is and what they want to buy with it) :D

    Hi everyone,
    Can I join in with the sealed pot challenge? I'm trying the grocery challenge as well as the 'Live on £4000 a year challenge'
    This website is so addictive - the amount of time I spend on here stops me shopping - sad
    I aim to put any change I have at the end of a week into the pot from the grocery challenge. Also I'll put any money I make from the hens (eight of them) after they have paid for their own food.
    January food 175.00 spent 181.60 oops nothing left. £4000 challenge/3384.49 left
    heating oil £396.69,

  • Aah bless Stunty that is so cute - keep hold of her, she sounds like a good lady!
    I have had a nasty cold for 2 weeks now (should've really gone down docs I suppose) but no-one has brought me chicken soup or soothed my brow :(

    But it is good tho as I have'nt spent much since :D

  • Emptied the contents of my purse into my tin and felt really excited - I need to go and get a life!
    If it seems too good to be true, it probably is, unless its from this forum!

    How are you Lilmissmup?

    Am good, been focusing on losing weight as well as losing the debt so not been online so much as too shattered after working out lol!

    But at least that also means more money for my pot and not Pizza Hut :rotfl:

    What you doing on here if she is there? :eek:
