    Nothing for me today, despite having been to the shops :(

    Bought half a dozen things -- and my bill came to a nice round 10p !!! So as I only save anything smaller (in value) than a 10p coin, that means no shrapnel for my money box :(

    What's the chances of that happening when some of the items are odd pennies :confused:

  • A few pennies in for me.

    Jess, have a think on what Sparky says. Slimming World costs money. If you need to lose weight (and chck with your doctor first) then simply try some gentle exercise and cutting down on meal sizes. But check with your doctor first! You're only 16 years old!

    I emptied out my coat pocket, had about 30p in copper in there...so in that has gone.

    I am really on a mission with this challenge....and the £2 one too. I am determined to get back to Disney Paris. The boys were only 3 & 5 when we went last time so will enjoy it soooooooo much more this time round as they will be 7 & 9, although the baby will be under 1!!!!! If I can save enough I might persuade a grandparent to come so we have a babysitter.....

    Just clocking in to wish everyone a Happy Christmas in what ever way you celebrate as may not get on here again today.

    Off to USA early tomorrow morning so have long list of things to do - getting the suitcases out would be a start of course. !!!!!

    Jess do not do slimming world, weight watchers etc, regular walking / exeercise and watching what you eat plus the physical activity of your new job should be fine at your age (my DD is 17 so I speak from expericance)

    Anyway see you all in 2009 - unfortunalty can't take Ziggie with me so hope he doesn;t fade away
  • back from my break away:D

    have quickly fed rasher a shiny £2 as he looked very hungry - will feed him more later
