    Morning - cold and icy here but not as bad as yesterday !!!

    Not looking at what I put in Ziggie - if I've got it it goes in!!!

    Well done Jess - we'll keep encouraging you!

    Whens the big day then Stunty?

    Sparky - NY was great but so so crowded.

    Off to make DH a drink - he's actually off work with chest infection which he has had the whole time we were away and has only just been to doctors with.

    Good day everyone

    Morning all. Shiny £2 coin into pot today. Well actually it was from my change after visiting Woollies yesterday. Bought paints for DS2, stickers for DS6, staples and 3 packs Christmas cards and all came to £1.10! It was 90% off from 2pm. All the staff looked really fed up, I feel so sorry for them. I am sad Woollies closing, will really miss it in the High Street. End of an era....

    Thank you for my number :j I have re-vamped my signature to have it proudly showing. :T

    I have just spent the last hour or so counting the large plastic coke bottle which is my container :silenced: I have £32.08 which will be my start point :smiley: Most of my money comes from the OH's loose change as he travels to London every day and comes home with pockets of change which he puts in an old soap dish. I resuce all his 1p's 2p's 5p's and the occassional 10p and 20p's of course all those £2.00 coins for the £2 savers club :rotfl: he he I doubt he realises how much it adds up to - he is not trained in the art of saving - and I have been trying to convert him for years....

    Evening all, well we saved a bit of money today, have signed up for Sky Broadband with their Sky Talk package free for 3 months. Nice. Will save us quite a bit of money in the long run over BT. (Otherwise known as those robbing B******s!)

    Glad everyone's ok and still popping change in their pots. I notice Sparky and I are STILL getting blamed for the roadkill shortage...... lol.

    Sparky - Mrs S and I are fine, I'm on day shifts for a while, but it's still dark o'clock when I get up!
    Mumzy - Yay! Go you, a new chap!!! Fantastic, you deserve it hun.

    we swapped to at christmas, cant believe we are getting more channels and anytime calls for £15 less than bt!!!!
    (sorry for any mistakes currently typing and bouncing 14weeks daughter on my knee, multi tasking at its best lol)
    added £3 yesterday and back to weightwatchers tonight so hopefully some more change there. :j
    back to comping in 2017, fingers crossed :beer:
