Evening! I've finally declared my amount for SPC14. I would like to carry on again this coming year.
Hopefully things will be a bit more accurate this coming year. Things went a bit to pot (Sorry!!!!) last year as I have been clearing my parents' bungalow out, and there wasn't much time to do anything else.Sealed Pot Challenge no 035.

Great to see plenty of activity on here and some nice unexpected ‘finds’ being potted.
Potted some travel savings as still saving plenty by hardly needing to travel to the office.

Afternoon all,
Found another 20p today for the pot. How is everyone else doing? I don’t think there is any more change in the house, except DH’s. He collects in his own tin.

I have a spreadsheet for my savings account and everything is allocated a section on there, including SPC15. I’ve had the same spreadsheet for 10+ years, so it’s a habit I’ve got used to. So, I might be “skint” yet still have £500 in my car fund, £234 in the holiday fund etc. My SPC money has its own section too and I simply don’t touch it for the duration of the challenge, other than to add £££.Also, at the end of each week I round my bank account to the nearest £5. So, if I had £347.56 in my current account, £2.56 would be siphoned off into the SPC section of the savings account. Clear as mud?! 🤣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 declared4
