Sealed Pot Challenge ~ 14

Sue-UU

A very Happy Wednesday Potters!  Oooh it's getting so very close now, and within hours we'll all know just how much we managed to squirrel away during the past year!!!!! Remember folks, no matter how much or how little you're able to have saved, any amount potted is a reflection on a great achievement, so be so proud of yourselves, just as I will be of you ALL!! Have a great day.

If any of you are feeling poorly or perhaps low in spirits, please take care, and get well soon with us.  For now, here are love and hugs to help look after yourselves ❤️ 🫂

Helloo Vicky!  It's so lovely to see you again! Yes, you've been a bit missing 😵, but knowing you so well I've always felt sure that you've been filling your pot, so you're forgiven 😉

Very little time left now so give it your all! See you soon xx

DON'T FORGET, folks, BE PREPARED WITH ANY BAGS YOU NEED READY FOR THIS THURSDAY!

Hi there gonnabedebtfree! Don't worry as the new thread, 15, will start again on Friday 29th, yes the very next day, and I always put a link on the outgoing thread so that you can all very quickly find your way to our new home! ☺️ See you very soon!

Hi Hetty, and yes, so many members have always likened the day before to be so much like Christmas Eve, Declaration Day as Christmas Day too! 🎅🎁 It's so good to know it has such a fantastic affect. 🤩

Your Alex is slipping isn't he! 😯 The first child I've ever heard of who hasn't had a Christmas List long before now! Of course he might be waiting for you to have your SPC money, so look out!!!

See you soon!  

... and I'm positive we'll keep you rivetted to the thread, Ant!! 😆 It's brilliant that we can please so many members all because of saving cash!! Absolutely amazing! 😛 See you soon too.

I really do hope your little daring is very much better today, Siju, or that she soon will be! Love to them all. xx

I'm more than a little excited myself too!!!!

Keep safe and do STAY HEALTHY!!

Thank you for your kind wishes Sue-UU.  Baby had a good night and Dad has been allowed in to see them today, so all looking more positive.  They are still awaiting test results but at least they are all together now.  

Looking forward to tomorrow

Hi All

I checked my pots today and my total is £504. A little bit short but not too bad

Hi A, little_sweetie, I'm so glad you're both settling in so well and that the neighbours are so lovely, as their new neighbours are. ☺️ I hadn't realised it was a new build, though it's the neighbours who will make the difference given the ones you've left!! 😡 

I quite agree with the rooms and especially the garden, and at least this time of year it doesn't matter so much in the garden. It'll all come together in time, just concentrate on the most important things.

Poor G, I'm so sorry he's clearly in constant pain, can't they help him in any way? At least his happiness, yours too will make a huge difference to you both! ☺️☺️

Our love to you and G xx

I've no doubt you're right about others being like yourself with not so much potted. Still, the fact that you'll all have saved as much as you're able is really all that counts, truly it is. Be chuffed with yourself though, you deserve that much for certain. xx

You're most welcome Siju, I've thought about you all quite a lot through last night and this morning. I'm so very pleased they were able to let your son in with them, 3 very happy people together for sure! 😊👶😊

Let's hope the test results are good and soon enough they'll be home together. Such a good job you had plenty of cuddles with her on Sunday! 

Take care and see you tomorrow. 🙂

Many congratulations on an excellent amount, Maddie57!!! 🤗 Not bad at all considering your Target and the uncertainty of the times we live in! Don't forget the new SPC will be up and running on Thursday 29th! I'll leave a link here tomorrow at 12 midnight so you can go straight through.

Good evening all

i have counted my pot today as I am going to my office tomorrow so will be able to pay the coins into my bank account.  I have added the content of the pot to my regular holiday savings.

Total for number 7 is £4173.30.

Thank you for running the thread again this year Sue, and I’ll ‘see’ you on Friday for the new challenge

Happy opening day everyone

I’ve just potted a last minute £6.20 🤣. Thought it may as well spend the night in the tin as in my purse.  Got my bags ready and I found 2 bags of silver left from the last challenge when I went to get them so I know I’ve got at least £16.20!

Sue-UU

A fantastic amount, 32b3, very many congratulations to you!!! 🤗 That took some serious potting and it certainly paid off.

Very many thanks, though you're really welcome. 

Good for you with your final sum potted, Hetty, though something tells me you'll have a Total which will be considerably more than that!! 😉 It's good to know you're all ready for tomorrow. 😄

Keep safe and do STAY HEALTHY!!

Its been a sparse year of potting again for me, I have a half full tin that I’m going to carry over to next year!

So my total is £240

 Maddy57, 32b3in2013 and mummytummy - Very well done all three of you. That’s over 5,000 pounds declared already!

Also it’s amazing that well over half a million pounds has been saved during the total lifetime of the challenge. That’s amazing. Huge credit as always to Sue for running this great challenge.
I’ve started counting and done some bagging but pesky work is about to get in the way now! 
I won’t have a final figure till Saturday as a small proportion of my coins have gone into a collection box that won’t be counted until Saturday morning. I’m sure Sue allows a couple of weeks anyway from memory.
Good luck everyone with your counting/declarations. As Sue always says ANY amount saved is a good amount saved.
