I've been looking for Mrs. SFT's blog as I'd like to re-join the Sealed Pot challenge after an absence of over a year. But each time I end up at a Google page asking me to 'sign in'. Do you have any idea what has happened to her blog? It is wonderful and full of tips for saving, many of which I have used. If you'd like to email me, my address is: maelinne (at) hotmail (dot) com Thanks so much. <br /><br />And, since I was here anyway, I've been having a peek around and finding your blog delightful, too. I'll be back! ~ Linne I haven't posted much in the past year, due to various things going on in my life, but I'm about to begin again. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-55652542980760188502012-11-07T08:29:06.080+00:002012-11-07T08:29:06.080+00:00I like the sealed pot idea.

Have just talked it over with Husband and we're going to do the same thing - only not for a year, but for 6 months. It's our 30th wedding anniversary at the end of May next year, we want to have a special holiday in a nice cottage (after years of holidaying in caravans or staying with relatives - nothing wrong with that, but we want something special next year). We're going to start now (I've got a large coffee jar I'll crochet a nice cover for) and open it up in May. We're already making lots of frugal changes to save money to pay for the accommodation, the Sealed Pot cash will pay for fuel and give us spending money.<br /><br />Thanks Sue for mentioning this, and to SFT (or whoever thought it up).<br /><br />Sooze xxSoozehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03762391472811785736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-27037025485134649822012-11-06T13:36:41.202+00:002012-11-06T13:36:41.202+00:00Are you making a doorstop and need the coins for t...Are you making a doorstop and need the coins for the filling?! ;-)<br /><br />Seriously, I am really enjoying your blog, it's refreshing and inspirational and above all, a good read. We do a "Virtual Sealed pot" each year - purely online involving the odds and ends from each bank account getting shifted across whenever I log in to the bank. doesn't save a vast amount (It'll be around 3150 this year) but it's another little way of saving money without noticing the going of it.
