    Rescued the snow covered coffee jar from the blue box, cut a circle out o the rice krispie box and have sellotaped it to the top. Have put £6.50 in this morning from the street dancing pot. No street dancing next week either so hopefully another £4 to put in. Am keeping some change in my purse for bread/milk etc, but once DH is back to work and we;re ready for next payday then any leftover will be going in the pot.

    Off to update my sig!

    Well done Reb, you brought up a point that I've been trying to get over to everyone for some time this year and last (08), and that's to: TAKE NOTE everyone "ask your local P Offices, shops and caf!s to see if they want your change - as they have to pay to get it from the banks"!!! Reb, see you can be handy at times - good too!!:rolleyes:
    :p I do try hard to please occasionally :p
    <she says hoping the brownie points are totting up nicely> :cool:

    Nice to see you back mum glad you're getting weller!
    <more brownie points?>
    I don't get to come on here too often.
    Too buzy money saving!
    :D
