  • gave in and counted my small change jar :rolleyes: £17.16 in that, figure in my £1 tin is a bit hit and miss as i keep track in my spending diary of my pound but i also throw in any that i come across in the house, found 2 down the side of the sofa so that went in but because htat is a proper sealed tin i have no idea what is in it exactly

    going to count my loose one every month and either change into pound coins or transer into savings as i think my wee piggy will shortly be full

    i need to hide my loose change jar because someone raided it the other day, i dont know if it was one of my children or one of their friends, needless to say i was very upset about it.:confused:

    Morning everyone

    £5 across today (£4 refund from Stagecoach for not getting change on the bus - hadn't missed it so it's for the savings!, and £1 to round down). Signature updated, I'm nearly at £300 which was my original target for April!
    My debt free diary | Post Office loan: £2131 1429.38 | Barclaycard: £4429 1988.12 | Paypal Credit £322.71 574.91 | Monzo Flex £169.03 |

    Total £4151.44 | £2900.30 of £7051.74 paid off since diary started October 2024.

    Thanks :)

    As it stands my last payment on my loan will be 16th June 2011. I have just decided that I am going to try and have it paid by 31st December 2009, and if I miss that my second target is 16th June 2010. Eek! It can be done, it can be done.
