well done you sparky i bet she was so grateful. i think we really should take better care of our older generation. giving up bus seats, holding open doors etc. after all god willing we will be needing the kids of today to do it for us. my parents are on pension and believe me £5 is a large sum of money to them. i dont have much to spend at the min but managed 40p for eeyore today why does it always seem so long till next pay day but yet the weeks are flying by. hope you all have a good sat night.:coffee:i find a cup of tea can solve most problems:coffee:
:dance: but alcohol solves them all :dance:

Morning everyone,
14p into my potty yesterday. Not a lot but better than nothing. May have some to go in later today, we're off to a birthday celebration in a restaurant later, so may have some change.
Have a good day everyone.

Still saving and still on the look out for road kill - managed 22p yesterday cos I found it on the floor in the house - other than that it was another NSD - doing far more of these at the moment - so things are looking good for my week off on holiday !
Keep well and keep saving:xmastree:0 -
Morning people. Good on you Sparky for finding that ladies' money - I bet she was really relieved.:beer:
It's raining here this morning - so probably a no spend - and no pottie pennies day for me today:eek:
We've booked our flights for our holiday this weekend. We're off to Boston for a week. I've saved almost £600 by using my virgin airmiles - so am really pleased:D Now to find some hotels MSE Stylee.
Have a lovely day people.:ASave me from spending...

Thanks LC,
My heart really went out to the lady, it just goes to show, you think that you're hard done by, then you come across some-one like this it's heartbreaking in this day and age, that people are actually living like this :mad:.
Again I'm soooo jealous of you, DW and I are talking about visiting Boston sometime in the future, well done on saving that much money :T on your flights. If you're looking for some-one to carry suitcases, I'm your man, m'am! (touches forelock, and tips head!) :rotfl:

Hi all,
60p into my eeyore today. Bless him, he's feeling a bit starved as my £20 note tin is seeing more of the ££££'s and notes
Found out today that i don't have to change up my £10 note as my tin opens without a can opener:D:D:D
..xxI am only me, no pretences, no second guesses.. It's the best I can do, I'm sorry if that's not good enough for you... I'm sorry I'm not good enough for you :A0
