    £5 added today, from banana purchase,

    loving putting notes in to get coins back, becoming a little bit of a issue....

    Evening all, some great potting going on. There seems to be no slacking.

    Just time for a quickie.
    Potted a £2 coin and 2 x £1 coins.

    2016 was both financially and emotionally. 2017 will be our year.

    Just a thought, Baby Angel, but why not give your DH the pot and suggest he fills it and surprises you both in November. Preferably, why not ask for the reigns with the cash! Good luck to you, I hope you get the chance to at least save some cash.

    We started off together on this challenge to overpay the mortgage. Later it turned out the money would be better in the mortgage account than in the pot, due to interests on the mortgage. In fact he is contributing to that now with his little savings/roadkill.

    I have full control of the finances. He does an amazing job on the grocery spending, should I say, saving :) on the money that I give him every month. Can't ask more than that from my wonderful DH :A

    I potted £1.50 yesterday. Went home half day and potted the off peak savings I would have otherwise spent on the peak hour tube fare.

    £1.04 potted for me today :)
    Good news!! Dhs biopsy has shown he has dysplasia of the vocal chords and although the doctors will have to keep an eye on him from now on there is no sign of cancer. I can't tell you how relieved we are :)
