I failed on my 100 day challenge not to impulse buy yesterday, so it cost me £1 into my sealed pot.
Also took the grocery challenge to the next pound with the change in my pocket, the food bill won't miss it. :j but my seled pot will. :TI don't get to come on here too often.
Too buzy money saving!0 -

Nothing added to terramundi yet today, but sorted out my old coppers tin last night and did a house-kill search - ended up with £3 in coppers, £1.20 in 5p pieces and 60p in 20p pieces. This is really getting very addictive!

Morning PB,
I'm afraid that if it's on the floor, the first one to pick it up is the winner. I have no shame about picking up any coins of any currency ( I also have some euro and USA coins snaffled from the ground lol).
Have a great day hun, but wrap up well it freeeeezing out there!Sparky, i would much rather you had it than anyone else but leave some scraps for us novice pavement scourersSparky0107 - Sealed pot challenge member #002.
