    Happy Tuesday SPCers! I had everyone had a really lovely weekend, a good Monday too.
    To all those feeling poorly or low in any way. Get well soon. Best wishes from us all. ❤️

    Well done with the 2 X £2 coins in your pot, MrsShazbat. What a shame your car's service was so costly! 🤨
    I sincerely hope your DH's operation isn't changed as a result of the strikes, it'll make such a difference if he can get it over and done with! Fingers crossed!

    Such a shame about the measurements of the sofa. If he'd really love a recliner then I'd stick to your plans and get him one, even if it is a bit late, far better he has something he's going to really enjoy.
    Take care and I do hope he has his op soon!

    Well done with the cash for your pot, Saver-upper! Plus the latest £1!!

    Do the best you're able, Ant, anything that builds your Total in October will be amazing! 🤩 Meanwhile, well done with the £2.50p as well as the 50p!!

    Excellent money, Keedie!! 

    I'm so pleased you're now doing so well with your Target, Lucy, great news. You're right about the nightmare we're all now in! 
    Whoever would have thought we'd be in such a state, and yet not of our own making!! 😠

    Your poor hubby! I do hope he gets some good news when he goes for his appointment - and that whatever date they may give him is kept to and NOT affected by any strikes!! 🤨
    Poor chap, it must be so hard to have such fears that he just can't help, yet being unable to do anything about them, especially as he's always been so active, he sounds just like my T. It's bound to be frustrating for you both, I can understand that very well. 
    I'll be in touch very soon. Love and best wishes to you both ♥️

    Oh Flowers, how could you? 😱 However, no doubt he knows the situation "If I find it on the floor, I pick it up!" "If you want it, make sure YOU always pick it up!!"

    Have a peaceful Tuesday evening and lovely Wednesday and stay safe and health, folks!

    Sue
     

    NB folks: Declaration date is ON THE 26TH October 2023! BEFORE if you wish BUT NO LATER PLEASE!

    Anyone wishing to join us, it's NEVER too late! So please just ask and you

            DH and I haven't been great this last week.  DH has had fever, shivers etc and I've had a cough and cold; all thanks to our dear grandchildren!  Have both been testing, so quite sure it's not covid but still quite horrible.  On the mend now though, thankfully. Really looking forward to the Spring  :)

            Another £6.74 in the pot today.  Have a great week :) 
            SPC 16 - #09 Totals: 2014 - £264.51 2015 - £207.50 2016 - £396.79 2017 - £369.49 2018 - £484.24 2019 - £309.90 2020 -£282.06 2021- £1839.89 2022 -£1627.83
          4. Purse has been emptied of change into the pot again today. There was quite a bit, but not adding anything up so it’s all a pleasant surprise in October! £2.70 pending from TopCashback which will go into the little online saver I have for this challenge 😊😊
