  • Nothing to update, but have had parents going through their purse and wallet for 20p!

    But have been proactive today, to distract myself from the tennis outcome (I wont specify incase someone hasnt seen it yet, you never know with all these tv recording things) I have done lots of ebay listings, so hopefully this time next week I will be rich!!! :)

    tooch - as ruthie says, you decide on your rules

    personally I would count the breakfast club money as its extra to your normal job, but I wouldn't count the money in my change jar as it's not extra money to me (it's money I already had IYSWIM). If I find any money on the pavement, then I count that though!

    I count money saved on BOGOFs and 2fors when I do my shopping as long as it's something I would usually buy. Whcih reminds me - I need to check how much I saved at Mr S this morning!

    And I have a very small PlayTrade sale to add

    Thanks ruthiejane will pop into the PO in the morning and get some money bags, yey!!!!

    Froddington, OK, will get the money bags, count the money, put it into bank and start again.....money in bank account won't be counted as at the mo, I am living out of my overdraft so that money will go towards that and any extras counted here will be kept seperate, IYSWIM?????

    oooh - you can count it if you want :o I was just saying what I do, but we all count things differently.

    Right - £1.44 profit from PlayTrade sale and £1.58 saved in Mr S.

    So that's three auctions running again and two new buy it now's up and a whole host of photos taken for others if I get the chance at all, work's going to be super busy throughout the week and I'm going to end up putting in a lot of evening overtime too (hopefully for it all to pay off!)
