    Hi,

    Didn't think we had anything to go into the pot today, then had the news that our 3rd grandchild had been born today....several weeks early. So popped out to buy a card, and the change went into the tin. Need to up the odds now, 3 to buy for next xmas. !!

    Congratulations elsie52 on the birth of your third grandchild. :beer:

    Only 2p gone into my pot today - had a nsd but found the 2p down the back of the sofa when cleaning.

    Several weeks EARLY is not what I want to here at 10 days overdue!!!:mad:
    Hope they were not too early to be a problem.

    Nothing in my poor pot for a few days now as I havent spent anything to get any change.

    does anyone know of this website if it is a good site ie (you do get the cash back) i will add what i earn into the sealed pot advice please

    Hi Darcy, I'm not sure how good they are, I've never heard of them before.

    I think you need to change the link though as it seems to have a referral link on the end and that's not allowed on this board I'm afraid.

    the following link works ok though. ;)http://www.moneysavingcashback.co.uk

    Have just been through all my handbags and put all the silver loose change in my sealed pot and the coppers into another. l have told the rest of the family whats going on and what l would like them todo - put in not take out. This may be hard for my DD put we can only live in hope.

    hey jp i have been trying to win stuff for ages how do you win?????

    i just enter all the comps on the comp board, it takes a while to get your first win then you should win about once a week. it has got busy on there though in the 2 years since i started so winsdont come as often now. last win is the premiere and i cant go now, so having to pass up meeting daniel craig wich husband is fed up about lol. just keep going at it and they do come in, best place is the comps board though and they are all lovley over there.
    back to comping in 2017, fingers crossed :beer:
