After a couple of weeks travelling for work and a night out for the hubby this weekend, we've put all left over change between us in the tin.
I've also cashed out £9.11 from Prolific for the virtual tin.
Even the kids are getting involved putting in their coppers! ��1p a day challenge #47 £1.89/£671.61

Welcome back ladies, and a warm welcome to those who have joined.
Managed to bag myself a couple of sealed tins (the only ones i could find this year were either MASSIVE or much smaller than normal, so i went for two smaller ones).
Aiming to raid my purse at lunchtime today and pot what's in there.Sealed Pot Challenge 075

Hi everyone ..I've been looking through challenges to help me with my 2020 goal of learning and sticking to a budget and get better at saving
Can I join? I was going to go through all the change stashed around the place today and then take to Coinstar so thanks for the reminder that I will be losing money! I'll save it for the pot challenge for next year instead

I had a lovely relaxing weekend with a group of old friends last weekend and feel refreshed and happy to face the world. After checking my purse today, I have a total of £12.25 to pot.

I have found a grand total of 18p in roadkill so far so that's been potted. Included a penny so bashed and battered, it only vaguely resembles a penny. Must be lucky though?!
I have emptied the coppers out of my purse into the pot a few times but no big money yet, but plenty of time yet
I have also downloaded a spending tracker app and I'm going to be strict about tracking my spending and trying to cut back.Sealed Pot Challenge #135

Finally found my way to the new thread! Have had such a ridiculously busy 3 weeks, DH went on his bromance holiday with his mate literally the day after opening day for a week so I was left with the 2 bratlings and the puppy, then various Christmas type stuff getting sorted, and now our baby girl has gone into season so we've been dealing with her as she has no clue whats going on bless her
can't settle, not really eating (unless its a mummy made roast dinner, then there is no stopping her :rotfl: ) in and out the door as its making her feel like she needs the loo all the time. Only 6 more days to go then 10 days of making sure that no male dog gets anywhere near her! (I did ask my breeder if there was such a thing as a puppy chastity belt, sadly not it seems :rotfl: ) Currently we look like we are redecorating as the entire downstairs carpets are covered in dust sheets and the sofa is covered in her blanket and a towel. She's just very confused that she can't sit on my chair with me like she usually does
All 3 tins are taped up and have coins in, hoping for a better year this year. Have also booked our summer holiday for next year as I've decided to book it nice and early so I can a) pay it off before we go, not book last minute with the good old credit card, andwe have something to look forward too for the next 9 months
Right back too my potting, and fleabaying (I've decided to have a cull before Christmas and all pennies are going off the holiday but I may sneak a few into the tin shhhh ) happy potting everyone :wave:SPC No 002 SPC(3) £285/£250 (4) £519.84/£500 (5) £768.32/£500 (6) £911.30/£600 (7) £913.23/£600 (8) £1184.82/£750 (9) £2864.04/£750 (10) £3846.25/£1000 (11) £1779.72/£1000 (12) £1596.55/£1000 (13) £1534.70/£1000 (14) £775.60/£1000 (15) £700.20/£1000 (16) £2081.34/£1000 (17) £1691.15/£1000 (18) £225/£10000 -

Good evening everyone :hello:
A couple of nights after work I've thought about having time out and going for a coffee... but I haven't cracked so far! However, I have potted 2 x £3 for the money I would have spent. :j :j
And a £2 coin snaffled from DH. :rotfl:Sealed Pot Challenge #021 #8 975.71 #9 £881.44 #10 £961.13 #11 £782.13 #12 £741.83 #13 £2135.22 #14 £895.53 #15 £1240.40 #16 £1805.87 #17 £1820.01 declared0
