I get mine when I've been out shopping with the kids or they con some sort of money out me for something and I end up with change.
As both kids have money boxes, I go through their money boxes every couple of months and change any shrapnel into pound coins and put that in the pot.0 -
Happy Birthday Stunty.

A warm welcome to the thread Carol, (Nancy888), though now you've noticed we're a really mad lot - are you sure about joining?
Course you are, you're probably the same!!! You'll find your number on page 1. Good luck with your pig, your saving too, and enjoy the thread.
Moving on from the sanity debate (no-one here is)!
Hi Spoonyoh, why not tell us which things you do. I also do things that don't see a return until a given amount is reached i.e.. YouGov £50 and OnePoll £40. My preference now is for OnePoll as YouGov doesn't send surveys out so often, though I can't complain as I've had a £50 cheque already and have since earned £23!! So, I'll not complain about that. So many of the other surveys are crafty and seem to ask the questions - then tell you you don't fit the bill!!! Does taking in washing, ironing etc appeal? Selling things on e-bay? I like the end part of your sig!!!........Just noticed you come from France then Deborah,(dND),or are you living there but originate from here, makes no difference, I'm just nosy?!!!

To be honest missessex, I'm sure it affects us all in exactly the same way. I know it's been life-changing for me. ...A belated welcome to MSE!.....How do we get our money??? There are many answers to that one! I check hubby's pockets at night, just to make sure he doesn't walk lop-sided - no other reason. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: I keep an eye out when walking through the CParks and along pavements, if you're not used to doing that yet, bend down and snatch it then pretend your foot itches or similar! Any change left over from shopping ALWAYS goes in the pot.
Hi all, hope you're all having a lovely day even with the cold.
