Sealed Pot Challenge!!

  • Just put silver in the terramundi, 5p, 10p and 20p's however occasionally I dropped in a few 50p and £1s and was amazed that about £15 of it came from them, didn't know I had put that much in.

    Will still be saving all my change, but just not in a sealed tin so every so often I can put it in the savings as every little helps when its offset against the mortgage, especially as our rate is quite high!

    Unfortunatley the flowers have no scent - they just look lovely!!

    spot has gained 72p !!!

    4 weeks today I'll be on holiday !!!
  • I realise it's 5 months late, but I'd like to join in - have been saving my spare coppers for a while now, pot got full the other day, totted it up and came to the grand sum of *drum roll*................. £3.87! So I decided to have two pots, one for coppers, and one for 20p's and 10p's :grin:

    No idea what a reasonable amount to save might be - £100? confused-smiley-013.gif

    Hi All,

    Ive managed to stuff my pot this weekend with cash, i recon ive put about £6 in which is fab becuase its been a bit neglected lately, definately getting very full thou.
