    Hello there Our Elsie!!! :kisses: :hello:By golly, it's good to see you here again! We'll ALL be really delighted to know that you've been happy earning extra money to spend on the little ones! Why not, that's what they're for! I'm pleased you were able to go on holiday with them too. For the sake of our "family thread" just please try and drop us a line or two every 3 or 4 weeks if you can, trouble is we care for each other yer, but that's no bad thing. It doesn't matter if it's only coppers you're putting in, it's still saving!

    Hi LC and Kas, so far as I can see Reb was last on line on 18th July. A fair time for her not to be on any MSE boards, I do hope she's ok. As far as I can remember though, hasn't she an off-spring who lives away? Maybe that's where she is. Surely she must be missing her cosy seat by now. Come on back Reb, all is forgiven.

    I hope you had a great time Helen. Never been there yet, but who knows.

    Bad luck with the dates TheBees. I saw a post where someone was saying that in £land they have 2 open with tin opener type tins for a £1, might be worth considering.

    Fed the pot a whole £6.72 today after shopping. £4 of that was shiney ones, I love em!

    have a good day folks and keep saving the money.v:D

    Morning everyone,
    Still no lappy, so I'm reliant on work at the mo'. Good to see you back Our Elsie. Still filling the pot and finding road change.

    I've cleared it with the boss, Sue, I'm going to be trying to do a grand total for all the sealed pots come December, so I'm going to need everyone to put their totals into a post so I can get the figures in the spreadsheet.

    Have a great day everyone keep saving and stay safe

    Hi all! Just 1p for the pot today.

    Edit - Another 1p just gone in, so a grand total of 2p today! On the plus side, at least I'm not spending much so that makes up for the lack of action for the pot :D

    Hi Sparky! I hope your lappy soon recovers to tackle the the spreadsheet...or that your boss doesn't look come December! Thanks for announcing it sparky, at least now everyone will know what to do come December 1st.

    Don't worry though folks as either sparky or myself will be jogging your memories well in advance....you WON'T be able to forget!;)

    Ah so (make sure of the pause there people!) there you are Jordan, and about time too! Good to hear you're still saving well, you'll need a fair bit to cover that too! Never mind, where there's a will..........etc.

    Good to see everyone still saving as much as possible. Keep it up though as the last few months of saving always go so darn fast!

    Sue

    Stunty

    I hope you're feeling a little bit better tonight Stunty.

    Well since last week I have only found one cent roadkill and haven't done any recycling. Fingers crossed I'll be able to find something tomorrow though which I will be able to cash in on Thursday.

    Well done everybody, every little bit helps.

    Toodles.
