Sealed Pot Challenge ~ 14

Sue-UU

Hi Cobweb! Apologies and thanks for pointing out my error, but you're right as your No is 051. 🙄

Congratulations on your potting which, given the circumstances, we all find ourselves in since that ..... Virus is very good indeed!!! 🤗

It's so good to hear how pleased you are with your Total regardless, it's a joy to read, and many thanks for your kind words. 😄

If it's any help to you we're also all able to use the bank to help us save more money. This year I've transferred some from hubby's & my account to my SPC account which has worked very well, but all of us have different ways, so as long as you do what's best for you then that's fine. All the best for this next year which begins tomorrow and for which you and everyone else is transferred automatically. 🙂

Hi Jakes-mum and happy count up day to you too. This darned virus is making such a difference to us all potting wise. Still, £775.60 is still worth saving, so congratulations to you!!! 🤗 

All the best for SPC ~ 15!

You've absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about, madlyn, as you say, you started part way through the year and what with one thing and tother isn't the best of times at all. Congratulations to you on what you've saved and be proud!!! 🤗 Yes, by all means keep what's left over and get yourself a head start for SPC ~ 15 which begins tomorrow. See you then. 

Not at all bad, Chocolatedrinker!! Many congratulations to you with a great amount!!!! 🤗 See you over on SPC ~15 from tomorrow!

I totally agree with you, Siju! Very many congratulations on a beautiful amount saved!!! 🤗 Whichever way we save these days, we're still saving and should be so very proud of ourselves. 😃

See you on SPC ~15 tomorrow.

Excellent words 32b3!! 🤩 It makes a huge difference if we save, no matter how much it is, as you say, it's money not spent, or in many cases, wasted! 🙄

It's fantastic to see it all rolling in and the pride felt. ☺️

Brilliant potting Hetty!!! 🤗 As soon as I saw your Total I had a feeling it might be more than what you thought with what you said last week, congratulations on a great sum indeed!!! 🤗

I'll see you over on SPC ~ 15 tomorrow. 😀

Good luck with the test, Vicky! 

Very many congratulations on a really great sum!!!! 🤗

All best wishes for an even greater amount for your holiday next year!

PS. For some reason I never forget your No. See you from tomorrow on. 😀

Excellent potting gonnabedebtfree!!! 🤗 You've done very well indeed.

Ok then, see you tomorrow 😆

Amazing so far everyone

Keep safe and do STAY HEALTHY!!

Sealed pot opened and counted! Together with the money that went straight to PayPal from online eBay sales the grand total is £486.64.

Pretty pleased with that! Nearly all of it came from selling stuff I no longer need, two were things that I bought and never wore!

Loving the pence total too as my number is #064 😊

Great to see results coming in
Sue - I think E4Rub might have slipped under the radar with her declaration this morning, although I’m sure you’ll go through with a fine tooth comb when the dust settles a bit!
Done a bit of bagging and banking on my lunch hour as very lucky to be close to the High Street. Won’t have a final total until Saturday but very happy with what I’ve done so far.
Just to repeat what 3nb3in2013 and your good self says Sue - Any amount saved, however large or small, is a success.
Right, back to work

Sue-UU

Hi kr147, amazing how selling clothes etc that you no longer need can amass such Totals! 😯 Congratulations to you on a brilliant sum!!!! 🤗 You've done really well! 

I will be starting SPC ~ 15 at midnight tonight so no doubt you'll soon join us. I'll put a link here on 14 for you to go straight through.

See you soon 😀

Many thanks Ant but Emily is E4rub (page 78) 

and has been with us for yonks. 

Don't worry though as I'd be very grateful for you to check through to be sure I haven't missed anything or anybody. Thanks so very much for your help. 🥰

I'm so pleased with how happy you are about your savings so far Ant.

Keep safe and do STAY HEALTHY!!

Wow, there are some brilliant totals already! Well done!

I'm # 12 checking in with my total of £113.62  It's not an amazing total but it means that DD and her family can have Christmas gifts without me scratching my head to find the cash 

I'm ready with an empty coffee jar to begin again in earnest tomorrow too.

Happy counting and GOOD LUCK everyone x

SummerDays

Good afternoon all - some great totals on here! Everyone has done so well.

Number 026 reporting in (with some difficulty getting logged in with passwords and what not!)

Total £1,616.17. Saved via an online pot of £100 transfer per month as I couldn't quite figure out how I would manage to save in a world that had gone mostly cashless, so £1,200 there and then I realised I could save the cash that people gave me when I'd made purchases on their behalf, so a further £416.17 there. More than enough saved for Christmas and a good chunk to save towards work on the house in 2022.

Thank you Sue-UU  for running this challenge. 

Sue-UU

Hello A little_sweetie, and congratulations on all you've managed to save!!! 🤗 It might not be a great deal but I know it's not been an easy year for you, and all in all you've done very well indeed. No matter what folk manage to save it's what they're able to do with it that counts. At least your savings means you don't have to worry about DD and the family, a lot to be said for that. 😍 

We'll be up and running with SPC ~ 15 from midnight on and I'll put a link through from here tonight for you all. 

Take very good care of yourselves xx

You've done so very well too, SummerDays and very many congratulations to you on such a great amount saved!!!! 🤗 You've saved in the same way as me and what a relief it is. 😯 

I'm delighted you've been able to do so much with your money, all the very best this next year too!!

Thank you for your words, though it's a pleasure. 

See you tomorrow on SPC ~ 15.

Great savings folks, excellent in fact!!!!!

Keep safe and do STAY HEALTHY!!

Hi Sue  

#57 reporting £195.50 this year.    I was surprised to find it was more than last year given that I was using contactless a lot more.  I still need to take the cash to the bank.  Count me in for next year

Thanks
Dragon Lily  

Sue-UU

A very happy opening day to you, MrsShazbat. Haven't you done really well all things considered.

Many congratulations on a very good sum!!!! 🤗

D'you know I haven't had or even caught a glimpse of 1 x £2 coin all year! 😯

Thank you so very much for the kind words, though it's really quite enjoyable. 🤩

Incidentally, everyone is automatically transferred to the new thread so, will I see you there at midnight? 😉

Hello Dragon Lily, very good saving indeed using contactless alone! Many congratulations to you on a very good amount!!! 🤗

Don't worry, you're all transferred over to SPC ~ 15, unless anyone let's me know different of course. I'll see you there soon 😏

Some really fantastic Declarations have been made Potters, keep em coming!!!

Keep safe and do STAY HEALTHY!!
