Welcome Eupho, it's really nice to have you joining in with us! Wow, you must have £100's in those bags. It definately would be worth cashing it up and paying it toward your debts, maybe you will get one of those creditors off your back!
Let us know how much you have if you count it up, and I will add your total next to your name on post 1. Keep posting as and when you add to your stash, then we will all be encouraged to save more!"Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."

Sorry to hear things aren't going well Focus, hope things improve soon
Maybe this will cheer us all up, it cheered me up anyway! It's so sweet!"Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."

Hey!... maybe thats where the £34 grand went?? :T
:rotfl:
Focus and Lesley,I really hope things pick up for both of you. As horrible as things are now, I'm sure some day you'll look back and be so proud of how you coped and came through to better times. Maybe we should have a loose change to pay for chocolate challenge!
Thanks Rosepink. So nice of you to say that!
I have €2 going in the pot today. Nowhere near full but healthy-looking nonetheless.Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far!
Sorry if I don't reply to posts - I'm having MAJOR trouble keeping up these days!

I have finally counted up my pot and have a grand total of £7.63 in it! I can't make any full change bags so I have put them into bags with a note of how much is in it. My plan is to fill my pot again and then add to my bags at a later date when hopefully they will become full and I will be able to bank them!
If that makes any sense at all!Total Debt [STRIKE]£36323[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]Dec 2012[/STRIKE]:eek: £19000 January 20160 -
Tinka, I know exactly what you mean, I sometimes do the same thing myself if my piggybank (where i put 1ps 2ps and 5ps) gets too full, but there isn't the right amount of one type of coin to bank.
Not spent anything today, no change to put in
. Did find a £1 on the floor of the car, which is now mine! Don't know who it belonged to originally! :rotfl:
I think I've done too much the last few days, am terribly tired this evening and have a headache. Am going to relax this evening!
Also, don't worry if I disappear at any point, am having internet connection trouble again, but if I go it won't be for long! I will coax my modem into working again!"Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."
