  • Hello all:hello:

    Number 345 here,
    I have a tin that you have to open with a can opener(for £1 & £2), an eeyore money box (i've taped that shut) and another money box (for anything under 50p)
    I know its a bit mad:rotfl: but think of all that money i could be getting!!
    AND i've convinced my OH to do it with me, although he's not on here, i will put it down as my savings, if that's okay with everyone??:confused:
    I'm SO excited to be apart of it this year:j
    Well done to all of you who have started saving already!!:T
    ..xx
    I 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 :A
