  • Hi everyone!

    Just a few pages to catch up on while I've been at work today :p !

    No pennies for the pot so far today, I started off really well, but since ever since day's 1-3 nothing :confused: ! Where have all the pennies gone?! Was going to go for a walk around town lunchtime to look for some 'road kill' but it was far too cold!

    Chicken Egg xXx

    woohoo i won my lovely eyeore money box on ebay :j i decided if i had a lovely pot to save in that i couldnt see into :o i would be more likely to save and less likely to dip :D so when he comes im going to duck tape over stopper and transfer money iv had in glass jar.

    sorry meant to say i wont be keeping track sparkles :D
    Congratulations on winning your money box .. hope it was a bargain! lol
    thank you for replying to my question .. I dont think I am going to be trying to keep track .. I know I wont be able to save much because I am a single mum & student so my income is minute lol, but I'll be happy with whatever i have at the end because it wouldnt of been there had I not done this .. does that make sense lol xx
  • Hi all,

    Been feeding my little pot quite a few times. Keep finding pennies around the house (and sometimes in other peoples house) and put them in. Have found a few pieces of "roadkill" but now i'm back at work and have to drive (17 miles away so can't really walk) There is even less time to "hunt" :p

    I'm trying not to spend so now there is less change for the poor pot. Hopefully when I do my next big shop i'll use my coupons and mulitbuys and fatten the pot more then with the saved money.

    Still i wish I'd bought a glass jar then I could see what is inside haha;) ;) December is far away!

    And there was me thinking all hope was lost! I now have restored faith in my ability to hunt for cash to put in the pot!
