5.5 hours and counting - I may open mine at a minute past midnight so I can start saving again first thing tomorrow, even although I won't be out anywhere to get changeI reserve the right not to spend.
The less I spend, the more I can afford.

:j I just opened my sealed pot and have £1076.29p waiting to go into bank now:j :j and my OH drilled the bottom out of my terramundi so that I didn't have to break it. Now got duct tape on bottom,;) Only problem was I had to rinse the coins in water as they were covered in terracotta dust:p

Lol, I love your posts! You sound like me. My OH got as many notes as possible from the terramundi with a pair of tweezers, because we couldn't bear to break it. He ripped a few in the process and we had to sellotape them back together! :eek:
Well done anyway, an amazing amount, and I'm sure that you feel great! I hope I can save that much for this year's challenge :TPAYDBX14 #060 £677/£15500 (4.37%) 6/18 NSD Make £10 a day £179/£155 £2 Savers Club #57 50p Savers Club #24 20p Savers Club #29 7/22 AFD Sealed Pot Challenge #290 Weight loss 2/54lbs 13/21.5 hours Team Dragon!
