    Have just found £1.12 in washing machine. Probably from OH's work trousers. Does this count or should I hand it back? Bit much, such moral questions this early in the day!!!

    Absolutely no question about it - you should do the honourable thing ...... and hastily stow it away in an appropriate receptacle before anyone has chance to claim it whilst cackling gleefully at your good fortune! :p

    Another £2 to add to the total today (litmus test reward). Ebay things finishing on Sunday and have a few bids already so fingers crossed those will take me over my target for this month !

    My rule here is that if it is down the side of the sofas, on the floor or in the washing machine it is mine unless it is the folding type of money then I find the owner.:)
