Hello @2sonmum it is NEVER too late to join.
Sue will be along soonish to sort you out with the finer details and to give you your own unique number.
The post on page 1 tells you pretty much all you need to know.These days we’re potting in the best way that suits us individually. The days of potting just in cash seem to be long gone for most of us.
I’ve potted a few more travel savings this week, which is what I do pretty much every week. Big benefit for me of this crazy COVID situation is I save a fortune in travel (and associated snacks/foods etc) costs.27/5/17 Mort 64705 BTs 1904031/12/17 Mort 59815 BT 1673007/04/20 Mort 49208 BT 1572128/07/20 Mort 47387 BT 1263414/11/20 Mort 45905 BT 10134 20/05/21 Mort 42335 BT 686811/08/22 Mort 32050 BT 2915Sealed Pot Challenge 16 Number 56 -

Hi Everyone
Not much potting going on with Christmas shopping to be done. Very satisfying to have my cash from the last sealed pot challenge for Christmas pressies though Potted £2.00 this week.

Hi everyone not been around much busy with work, and jobs round the house, not long to Christmas,
little bits of coins in the tin and £10 in the bank from surveys,.

Good evening all, hope everyone is well.
Thankfully it's been less exciting weather-wise than last weekend! I was working overtime on Sunday, so ended up driving home very slowly in the snow. Third gear and no more than 30mph all the way and I was very proud that I only managed to spin my wheels once.
I've had to stop having my nails done at the salon so that's a £23 saving every 3 weeks that I'm going to put into a bank account "pot". Unfortunately the new owner of the salon has switched nail varnish ranges from shellac to gel and I don't get on with the gel one - it's just not as hard or hardwearing. I have nail psoriasis so my nails are pretty weak to begin with, and when they break they do so quite low down below the fingertip-line - since I last had them done 3 weeks ago, I've had 3 break and lost 1 altogether. Fortunately it isn't painful but they do look a bit rubbish ahead of the Christmas 'do' season
Have a good week all xSPCNo.18 #20 (17 £562.86 16 £678; 15 £1120.92; 14 £416.53; 13 £191.52; 12 £260.48; 11 £480.95; 10 £682.31; 9 £442.64)

A very good Monday Potters! I hope you all had a super weekend and will enjoy the week ahead. Enjoy yourselves everyone and here's hoping we can all stay safe and keep healthy! Save in a way that's best for YOU! 😄If any of you are feeling poorly or perhaps low in spirits, and take care, and get well soon, then come on back with us, for now here are love and hugs to help look after yourselves ❤️Hi Dragon Lily, well done in using your SPC money so you've not got to still worry about Christmas! A great relief for all. 🥰Another £2 towards it saved for you!!Don't worry dizzybee, as long as you pop on as often as you can, that's fine with us.Very well done with the savings! 😊Oh it was bitter down here on Sunday, MrsShazbat! We went to our friends for the day and we didn't leave the house once apart from feeding the geese.Well done for driving home without skidding at all!! I wish we'd had at least a dusting. ☹️What a shame your salon has changed varnishes. I've got psoriasis on the scalp and body, but I've never even heard of it in the nails! It sounds awful to suffer from, can you go to another salon locally? I do hope so.Enjoy the week 😊.🤣😂 3 X £2 coins is an absolute trauma, Hickles!!! 🤭 I'd have to lie down for a day or two if I received if I was given them these days. ☹️Brilliant saving!!Have a relaxing Monday and very SAFE Tuesday, folks but DRESS UP WARMLY anda VERY SAFE TUESDAY WITH THE STORM TOMORROW!!Do STAY VERY HEALTHY and keep on potting/saving!!Sue xxNB Folks: The opening date for this year is 27th OCTOBER 2022
