    Evening both. I have to say usually MIL is lovely, but this weekend I just seemed to have a very short fuse and couldn't be doing with catering for her every whim - which we usually do. Maybe it's a sign that I'm getting older too. lol I feel a bit mean now though, she probably hates me today :0(
    :j HA!HA! Little chicken is getting older,
    LITTLE CHICKEN thinks she is getting older. :j
    Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...................welcome to the club chick.

    I managed to put some money in my pig today. I now have 2 sealed pots, 1 for money that I know will come in and I want to seal away for the special day (1st December) and 1 for money that I get from other places ie dad giving me a tenner when he visits....NOTE TO SELF: must invite him more often!( this is just for me on 1st December)

    It's funny how the odd bit of cash from him is more desired than pocket money as a kid. Yes, as I said I must be in the 'OLDER' club! :eek:

    :D:D:D:D:D
    I LOVE IT!
    :p
    I don't get to come on here too often.
    Too buzy money saving!
    :D

    :dance: few coppers in the pot today, every little bit helps as they say. Not sure if everyone has access to a Home Bargains store but my local one in stafford has sealed tins for sale at 59p, cheapest around i've seen and would probably hold £500 in £1 coins:dance:

    Hello everybody,

    I've found 12c roadkill today, well not so much roadkill as it was found on the hall floor, but it's as good as. It's mine now anyway :D

    Have been and cashed in some recycling that I collected at the weekend and got $9.50 :T so that's a nice big bonus for the pot.

    Toodles.
  • hey I actually put some change into piggy today!:j
