Good to hear you've got the SS done ready, though it doesn't surprise me at all, my hero. :kisses3:

    All the best for a good haul tomorrow, Jordan!

    Oh well done LC2!!!:rotfl:Only you could live in a cul-de-sac and wonder why you don't see someone go past the bottom of the road!! :DTis a bit like complaining of not see Southampton docks when living in the Highlands of Scotland! Time to move LC!!! ;)

    Well done on getting your pot already Kadeeae! £17.55 is a wonderful start to it all, yes, I noticed the POT you referred to, you're on the ball, which is more than can be said for some round here!!!;)

    Good savings GBN and Sarah! Well done everyone in fact. You too LC! I just managed to spot you in time then. Any more luck with a job? If not I hope you will soon.

    £4.22 in the pot for me ....you won't believe this, but it FELL out of DH's pocket!!!

    Have a lovely day tomorrow everyone and keep saving hard.

    Sue
