    Went into the village today, didn't want to but had to. It was very scary (have agoraphobia and depression so going it out is terrifying) but I went to all the places I had to go to and got some purple nail varnish as a treat! And got lots of change to go in my pots, including 1p of roadkill! Yay!

    Well done rosepink1984 :A That was a HUGE challenge for you, but hopefully now it will get easier each time x

    DH relented about the 2nd piggy in opposition to mine today and gave me the 6p pavement pennies which he had found. I also found another 9p loose change -so although it's not alot it's 15p more in pottery piggy today.

  • To ensure I wouldn't be tempted to raid my pot I glued the lid down and cut a (jagged) hole in it, just enough to get the coins in. The closest I can get to the money is to lift the bottle and gaze adoringly at it, hoping I fill it to overflowing by the end of the year :D

    It's a glass, former coffee jar, so it will take a lot to break it when the time comes.

  • Well done rosepink, big hug xx

    3p in roadkill for me today - on the floor next to those (expensive to use!) coin counting machines in the supermarket... every little helps as they say!!

    Also a £2 coin and some small silver because its payday and I actually had some money in my purse for once.... not any more though, its ll in the tin now!

    PS - My mum picked up my tin last night and said 'it doesnt seem to have much in does it?' AAARRGGGHHHH! PMSL
