  • Just chucked some coppers that I found in the kitchen in the pot. No idea how much is in there.... when it starts getting full I'm going to empty it, count it (to add up at the end of course!) and put it towards whichever debt I'm focussing on. Too eager to open it now but I know it'll be pointless!!

    I saw a penny in the road today, but was too embarrassed to pick it up. I only collect roadkill if there's no-one about :o. 5 pence shopping change in the pot today :T.

    If I'm with someone I just go 'oh see a penny pick it up...' etc etc make a joke out of it. I ALWAYS pick up money I find at work, made about £6 one day!

    You might be the first one on the naughty seat, you need training in the way of the road change picker upperrer :rotfl:I couldn't care who's there when I pick up change off the floor :D

    :rotfl:

    Naughty seat :eek:, me-no-likey! :(:p. Who's currently on the naughty seat? I bet it's all the cool kids :rotfl: :p.

    You'll both be proud of me, 25p in the pot today and 1 penny of that is roadkill :T. There was a guy walking behind and i just scooped it up off the pavement :D. I felt very self-conscious but still went ahead. What have you turned me into??!!! :D.
