    Is anyone else having problems avoiding the sales - or is it just me :( I've seen so many lovely things, but I am too poor at the mo to buy.:o

    Oh well - I guess looking doesn't hurt:eek:

    I put quite a few pennies in my piggie over the weekend, so am quite pleased.:T And I also have a job interview this week, so with any luck I could be working again soon, and get rid of that last CC debt once and for all. :A

    I keep forgetting to look out for mystery shops as that's how I usually boost my pottie coins - I must go and see if there's any available right now!!!

    Laters, LCxxx
    :grin: Save me from spending...

    Mum was desperate for some change over the weekend so I gave her my pot and she had £10 worth of coins out and put in a £10 note, so amount stayed same but pot not as heavy and left more room for adding coins. :rotfl:

    Also have been adding to it as often as possible and a minimum of extra £5 in since last time :T

    I want to keep filling the pot but mum keeps saying 'put it in the bank, what if you get burgled ' or 'get it in the bank and get the interest on it' :eek: so am undecided at the moment however know that the interest would be negligable so its just the thought of it been pinched thats making me think.

    hi all, god its been so long since ive been on here. kinda been off track a little with paying off my debt but im officially back on track now.

    pound coin jar is towards xmas and notes jar is for me to treat myself in the jan sales, woohoo cant wait.
