    Hey rosepink, how does that prepayment card work? do they charge you for something? :)
    Well prescriptions cost a fortune, but if you buy a prepayment card you pay less, if you get more than a couple of prescriptions a month. You can find more info here I'm sure I've saved money already. Sorry for the rambly explanation, had a long and tiring day at work today and my brain has stopped functioning.

    I've also relocated some of DH's change that I found lying around.

    Hugs to all going through a hard time, especially Lesley

    Hi, I hope everyone's doing ok here. You're all doing great with your savings pots. I have no change so nothing for the pot. I got loads but then spent it all at a fete on Saturday and haven't spent anything since. I will have to go busking or something!:D
    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!

    Welcome Sue, I will add you to the list. Well done with saving your coppers, it all adds up!

    Sorry I wasn't about yesterday, had a really bad day and couldn't get online as I had a lot of other stuff going on. Hopefully it will get a lot better from now on. I've been advised by my doctor not to work anymore as it's affecting my health so badly. I'd been coming to the same conclusion myself but it's still a bit of a shock and is going to affect us financially. I feel so guilty that DH is going to have to earn all our money from now on, he works so hard and now I can't help him by bringing in some money.

    I've relocated some change that DH had left lying around, so that's now in my money bag!

    Have a good day everyone, nearly the weekend!
