    I have two pots - one for 50p, £1, £2 and notes, one for 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p and 20p.
    Well, yesterday, I opened the pot with the higher value coins in! :embarasse There was £23 in it I think. I feel very guilty, but it's not to spend on myself, I need it to spend on my pets.

    I also wont spend all of it, so whatever is left with go back in.....

    Am I forgiven???

    We forgive you.:A You've gotta love the pets.:D:D:D:D:D
    :grin: Save me from spending...

    £1.20 in the 'student loans payback' jar and £1 in the 'ISA' jar.

    Have got a £1 coin in my purse that looks a bit odd. The writing on the 2 coin faces is seriously worn down / difficult to read. However the writing around the outside of the coin is very clear (even clearer than on the other pound coins). Hmmmmmm.......

    Hi everyone! Nothing for me again today, maybe tomorrow....!

    You're forgiven JaneLiz - just this once mind! I'd hate to think of the animals going short!!!;).....Proud of you I am indeed Kel! :TWell dome with that tin! You're doing really well, but in as much as we reap bits by sales, wins or whatever, we'll always need to spend out, especially for kiddies - no to worry Kel. Only thought about you last night and then you turn up next day, you a genie?!!:rolleyes:....Good for you LMM at least you're not rushing into it, but we do understand IF you need to, houses are more important!!:D.....It sounds ok Skippycat, but if you're concerned why not change it (get rid of when paying) for another to stick in the pot instead.


    Have a great weekend everyone, enjoy yourselves- and - the weather!:j

    Sue PS. For any new friends wishing to join us, please just ask and I'll be with you ASAP.

    Spent most of yesterday evening helping my OH to pack his things so he can be moved to Essex while he's away training, and aquired a small pocketful of change from the floors around his house all of which now live in my bottle, barring the 50p I kept towards breakfast today (will empty my purse later and put the change in the bottle to atone).

    Hoping for a bit of a road kill day tomorrow, going to a dive show with work, so hoping people will be tossing their change around (when theyre not giving it to us to pay for things).
