Sealed Pot Challenge!!

emmerrrrr

I joined the forum because I want in on the challenges... But is there a specific 'challenge folder'?? So far i've found this thread and the £2 challenge one... but I keeps seeing things in peoples sigs that i don't know about. Can anyone help?
For instance what are NSD challenges? And what about the 4K challenge?? I'm sooo confused!!

soooooooo bored tonight. I wanna count my pottie ;0) But....I should be ironing. Will eating chocolate cheesecake save me from breaking into the pottie?!?!!?

£6.76 over the weekend

I love the way everyone has really got into this here. OH empties the coins out of his wallet, children pop money in there that they find or from change from dinner money etc..
I check my purse after every trip out, sometimes nothing or maybe up to a £. I only put in small change not £1's.

'hippo' is looking good and feeling VERY heavy. We have finally decided what it will go towards and that's exciting because it will be one less debt

Hi emmerrrrr, I couldn't see it on the list oopalah put the link to, but I'm sure NSD stands for Non Spending Days. Don't worry, we're all confused ....that's why we're here!!! :rolleyes:

I do wish you'd stop trying to stir up the beast in me with the Celebrations (naughty sparky!) and NOW chocolate cheesecake LC????! :mad: I hope you got on with the ironing and resisted both the others, especially counting your pottie! Take control of yourself woman!!! :A<---- that's me! :rotfl:

Well done with your decision moneypooh, it's a great one!

Good to see you here sparky, any luck with the PC yet? Can anyone help you on the techie board perhaps, worth a shot maybe.

£2.62 today and £1 of that was given to me by hubby, almost made me feel a little guilty about the ones I relieved his pockets of. Almost I said!!! :rolleyes:

Don't know if the sealed pot challenge is ongoing but I am signing up today, savings to go towards holiday 2009. What number are you up too? Have got a super tin from £1 shop ready sealed so I won't be able to break in. Just open with a tin opener when full. Here goes!!

Hi all,
I decided to treat myself to a magazine at the weekend I was feeling very guilty cause I keep telling myself they are a waste and I only had a £10 note. However the lad on the till gave me 4 pound coins and a 20p for my change all of which had to go in my sealed pot. So my question is was I being more MS by buying the mag and getting money to put away or should I have had a no spend day?
I have to get this right for next years challenge you see.
PS I love Sgt Save Mr Stunty.

I say every now and then you need a little treat WER. Glad you like Sgt Save, he's a little patched up and wounded at the mo, he's sagging in the middle lol. I'm making a new one for next year, Corporal Cash. lol.
PS Less of the Mr, Mr Stunty's my dad!
