I have discovered DH has been dumping all his lose change in his bedside table for months so when he was at work I unsealed my pot, tipped it all in then resealed it:rotfl:
The pot weighs a ton now and he hasn't even missed it:j
By eck, the confessions on how folk get to their hubbie's cash are many, but I'm sure this one tops the lot ...so far!:eek: passthewine, I can't possibly condone this sort of behaviour on the thread, but I'll darn well applaud it!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Oh very well done indeed. I just loved this bit " The pot weighs a ton now and he hasn't even missed it:j" :rotfl::rotfl: Keep your eyes peeled PTW!!!

Have been adding to the pot as much as possible and its now getting full as only a small pot. Am on the look out for a larger one as sure I must have one somewhere and when I find it I will be transfering the pennies into it but without counting them as will wait until the count up date.
Every night I go through my purse and add all the change, DH often contributes as well although at the moment he doesnt realise he does
Happy Savings everyone :jMARCH £62.38/2500 -

Another £3.60 in the pot tonight - popped across to the corner shop opposite DS's to get him some milk etc while he was cooking, and changed a £5 note. Then as mothers do, I wouldn't let him pay me (would have had more for the pot if I had!)
Anyway, he cooked us a nice meal which included rice, beetroot, onions, mushrooms, kidney beans and ransoms (wild garlic) which he'd foraged in the woods and frozen. He just cut off a chunk and wilted it into the rest of his vegs. May sound disgusting but it was delicious!
Then I went out to W.I. while he looked after his dad for me. What a lovely son!Keeping two cats and myself on a small budget, and enjoying life while we're at it!0 -
