Sealed Pot Challenge!!

It's just dawned on me that this 'ere challenge is going to cost me plenty:eek:
Unless I go out spending I don't have any change to save in the pot. But my aim in life is to stop going out spending (unless absolutely necessary of course).
So here I am again gladly going out to buy stuff just so I can break into a £10 note so I can hurry home and feed the pot with any small change that's left over:rolleyes:.
Know what you mean, I keep wanting to spend so I can get some pound coins.
Another £1 to add to my tin making my total £20.Challenges / Debts- Live On £4,000 For A Year : Challenger 009 - [strike]£4,000.00[/strike] £3,970.67 left

Just found 2x £2 coins and 2x £1 coins in hubby's wallet so that's my total up to £10...... I'm just wondering how long it will take hubby to realise his trousers and wallet are getting raided of all nuggets on a regular basis. He hasn't noticed yet :0)

Hi 'Spot the Pig'
You need to take your photo and upload it somewhere on the net, something like photobucket or if you have free space of your own. Then just click the photo icon above (it looks like a yellow square with pyramids and the sun) and it will bring up the box for you to type in the URL address of where your piccie is stored. That way you can include it anywhere and anytime.
If all these pots are sealed, we'll need a final parade before any smashing parties take place!!!I reserve the right not to spend.
The less I spend, the more I can afford.
