    Halifax are a bit arsey with coin bags they will only take 5 bags per person per day. I use barclays though as theres a little branch up the road from me and the coins are soooo heavy, they dont seem to mind how many you bring in.

    You can still use the bags she gave you for any branch, so your prepared for the next time. :)

    Hayley i thought i was bad with them but 5 bags in one week!!!! Blimey girl! I have never seen them on offer :( I only buy them when i go to BP for petrol as they have a little M&S there. But nicki is right they dont actually have that many in them really. :D Yeah im holding out until the 1st Jan to start all my challenges.

    I am at work too today yuck, hopefully they will let us go early.

    The Natwest by my work has a coin machine, like the ones you get in Supermarkets but doesn't charge you. Is good as you don't need to have the coins all bagged up either so you can pay in any amount. I used it for mine and OH's coins earlier this month towards pressies.

    Am not hoping about going home early, my bosses are just too selfish-although believe me I'm not doing much ;). Natwest coin machine is good idea,but I'm banking with Lloyds and Barclays-I guess I just bag them next time.

    lol, looked through them xmas day and boxing day! They dont suck me in like instore sales do, as the delievery charges always put me off. Thank goodness!

    My perfume shop order just came! That was quick mmmm cerruti 1881, i love it!!!! :D
    I just realised my boots order i ordered xmas day is going to be delivered on a day when nobody is in next week. Doh!

    I managed to do 30 mins of wii fit plus before my dad kicked me off it to watch tv, my bedroom is too small to play the wii plus he would only moan that it sounds like im going to come through the ceiling! haha

    Im still trying to plan what i want to do in 2010, most involves OH so im hoping he can pop over tonight after he finishes work.

    Im getting so excited for the new year to start! Im going to try so hard at everything.

    I'm sure you will achieve everything you want.

    Talking about online sales, just ordered a nightie from figleaves-it was on sale (70%off), plus found a free delivery code on this great website:)
