Wow that's amazing @LittleMissDetermined! I use my Monzo round ups towards my PAD Pot and my Chase roundups towards my holiday spending money.
I've potted £15.55 today. I'd originally potted £14.55, but then I've just got back in from the shops and put the loose change in the pot so gained an extra £1.

Hi everyone!
I hope Sue gets back soon and that she’s okay.I hadn’t been able to pot for a while, but my TopCashback payout has been £48, so that is now accounted for in my (virtual) pot and spreadsheet. Plus it has been payday, so I’ve transferred some more across. Off to a healthy start.Stay safe and well, everyone.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 #18 £2021.83 declared5 -
