    Hi everyone - The plan was to go for a nice long walk today and look for some roadkill along the way, but due to one too many glasses of leftover New Years champagne last night, I haven't ventured much further than the kitchen:rotfl: and that was just to get some painkillers:cool: I have managed to get a pound out of my purse and would you believe it the OH found a pound in the washer when he took the washing out, so thats £2 in the pot today :T
    :jYou've got to be in it to win it!! Just believe to receive!! :j

    l'm only doing pound coins or less in my tin as my hubby saves £2.00 coins and l feel really bad if l spend one and don't save it.Recently their seem to be more £2.00 coins in circulation so l get alot more in my change which means if l put these in the tin l'm robbing Peter to Pay Paul if you see what l mean. Anyway have just gathered up the loose £1 coins for the missing days and have made a good start with £4.00

    Sorry everyone, I haven't posted on here for a long while. Sealed pot is still sealed and received about £1.50 from me yesterday as all the change in my purse went in to the various pots! Keeps getting the odd pound a couple of times a week and feels a little heavier now!

    No spends since the 24th so nothing for the pot this week.

    I've decided that if the postie doesn't call round with the calenders by the end of the month- they 'sell' you a calender in exchange for a Xmas tip - then that money will go into the pot and not just frittered away by being returned to my purse.
