    Well done Lesley - have just been catching up! And you too Rosepink.....puts the 4p I added today to shame!

    No - I didnt really have anthing to show for my £80....... £70 was for little ones football fees, I put £5 petrol in the car, and bought a few bits at the shop.......the change was all I had left.

    Congrats Leslie and Rosepink on those super totals, and well done to everyone else just for keeping at it. :beer:

    I'm so impatient for the 1st July when I can count my penny jar out and see how I've done. This "not looking" thing will indeed give me a nice little surprise, but it's very frustrating!

    Keep up the good work peeps :j

    Hmm..no PaD today, but I've got no money at all, so that's why!

    It's not that I've forgotten, more that I'll have to get on it when I can.

    InaPickle, it's hard at this time of the month.


    Well done Focus


    I found 10p in the kitchen today so that's gone in. Really glad that DH got paid in cash today as that means I can put it straight into the bank tomorrow and it will go straight in - I hate that cheques take 3 days, in this electronic age I can't work out why it takes so blinkin long! Anyway, him getting paid today will help our bank balance - being self-employed means no holiday pay!

    Hi Jo, Nuala and Kate, nice to see you all.

    Well done Lesley with having so much in your bottle

    Man, am I tired, I think it's time for bed

    Lesley if you found a 20p without a date. Would you sell it or keep it for a year or two, to see if you can get more for it? Just 40p in the tin today for me.
