    Not been on for a while but managing to put a few pennies away most days.

    Got a £2 today and a couple 20p's which have gone in their respective containers.

    Never see any roadkill!
    Hoping to retire earlier than 67!

    I am doing okay....BUT because I am trying hard to economise I am not having too much cash around and so as a result there is not as lot of change around. Not to worry I have been able to put in my small amount of wages and I'm not missing it too much!

    :T Thanx to Little Chicken I now have a new friend to fill! Here goes! :T
    I don't get to come on here too often.
    Too buzy money saving!
    :D
  • Now the weathers better and it's light nights I've started cycling to work and I'm saving the £3 bus fare I would've paid in my tin, so that's £9 for me this week :j
