Well, I originally emptied £1.03 into my physical pot. I went to cross it off my list, and it seems I've already potted a £1.03. So I had to scrabble around and find more coinage
. I found another 8p on my bedside table, so £1.11 potted.
SPC #36 :staradminx 8.SPC7=£751.10 SPC8=£651.04 SPC9=£843.00 SPC10=£872.76

Hi, is it too late to join in this challenge? I am doing mine monthly but in reverse, so the big numbers go first, I do this as I use Jan Feb Mar payment breaks for council tax, water bills etc. So I have Jan £108.50 and Feb £95.85 in the pot. I can track it on my signature then, many thanks x#103 1p Saving Challenge Back to Front 293.94/665.95Currently Reading: Christmas at Cedarwood Lodge - Rebecca Raisin Debt Free thanks to MSE1

Happy Friday all you wonderful savers. I for one will be glad to see payday next week and the next instalment of my penny challenge will go into my savings space.
It has been a tough month not helped by me losing my prescription glasses on a tough 12 mile coastal hike last week when they must have dropped out of my backpack when I pulled my hat out. I am now £89 poorer having had to fork out for new glasses although I did order 2 for 1.
