  • I just never have any chance to put int he pot at the moment - grrr. The problem is I keep on paying with my debit card and I have had the same £1.50 in my purse for the last week :eek: However today I spend it so I have got my bum into gear and taken out some cash and SHOULD have some coins left from drinks tomorrow (fingers crossed). I am still eagerly awaiting my first road kill too.
    £34,547 (Dec 07); Current debt: £zilch (Debt free December 2010)

    £1.16 into little pot today. Still No Roadkill........I start work at 6.30am and work in town centre.......but not once have I found any roadkill. Its not easy at all......I have to contend with the guys cleaning shop windows, the guy who changes the rubbish bins, security guards, and a couple of guys sleeping rough......What do I have to do. !!!:confused:

    Good heavens woman! :rotfl: (LOL)
    Can you not shoulder charge them, or use your elbows to bowl them out of your way :D We can't have people making excuses as to why they can't find road change ;) We need do-ers not excuses. There you go elsie, how's that for a kick up the backside, I should be a motivation coach with my skills :rolleyes:

    Very slow for me at the minute, only pennies, but it will all add up in the end. Keep going everyone.

    Hi everyone

    Well I'm off to a good start on the sealed pot challenge. I'm saving 50ps and £2 coins and so far have managed to put away £8. Hopefully I'll manage to put away some more before month end, but as I'm not spending much money these days I'm not holding my breath. Still it's only the first month, 11 more to go before I know how much I've managed to put away :D

    Onwards and upwards everyone :j
