    Not been on for sometime so its taking me some time to catch up. Great news about being sub 10K its taking a lot of hard work but you are nearing another milestone well done.

    Petrol by me at sainsburys yesterday was £1.23, but at the next petrol station further up it's £1.26, can't understand how some stations keep going. As on the coins topic i work at a secondry school and the kids don't deal with change under a £1, they just throw it on the floor especially copper coins, if we see it we put it in a charity box. Every type of coin is valuable to me if i see them on the floor anywhere else i pick them up and they go towards my debts, as the saying goes "every little helps "

    Whens your next payday Woowoo mines the 18th lookin forward to seeing your o/s total after that. :T :T :T

    when i first met my OH he used to throw his coppers away literally. The first thing i did was give him a tin to put them in, every so often he would send me home with a bag full after a visit. This helped me pay back some money i'd borrowed from the accounts i had saved for my nephews. My parents taught my sister and i to save coppers for either playing cards with or spending money on our annual holibob.

    kat, i 'sadly' did a calculation a little while ago as i used to get the 1p off a lt in Asda petrol stations, (originaly it had been 2p) and for the equivalent of the £5 voucher in morrisons i gain £3.33 in Asda so it worked out better for me. Not too sure about tesco's though.
