  • £1 to the sealed pot and 7p to the shrapnel jar today.
  • My poor little tin is suffering from negligence... haven't been out to get any change and I've raided as much as hubby's odd coins as I can without him noticing! I've even dug down the sofas, but found nothing except crumbs, peanuts and other yukky items! I did put a £20 note in the other day, which was some birthday money I still had from October, so that will have to do until I can get out and get some small change.

    i'm not keeping track of what i put in, are most people doing the same? another £2.45 change from shopping today

    I'm not keeping track either, just putting odd coins in as and when I get/find them. The £20 note was a one-off...
    Keep Calm and Carry On Kondoing

    You don't rent out rooms do you? DW and I will volunteer to come over and shovel the snow off "your path" if you don't mind us staying for a while :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:[/QUOTE]

    Sorry Sparks, hubby has a new snowblower this year and the novelty hasn't yet worn off, but when it does, I'll know who to call. ;)

    [QUOTE=raven-333;28677531]i was so happy running round laughing and shouting poor kids thought id won the jackpot. they were not amused when i explained i was so happy to see the pot growing.[/QUOTE]

    Any other site and this sentence could be really misconstrued, but we know what you mean :rotfl:

    Well done to all the lottery wins.

    Keep safe everybody.
