    well i had a little sale the other day :j and put half of it (£20) into the 365 pot so now I'm only a couple of days behind. :D I am soooo looking forward to opening this on 1st January - £25 treat each for me, DS and, DH then the rest straight onto a credit card.
    loves how my "I've been censored" signature has been censored. LOL. Happy Christmas. :xmastree:
  • Yawn! I know its very late 11.40pm but if I don't keep up the old payments I'm worried that chickywiggle will think I've forgotten - which could possibly be true!
    Thanks for the great tip bromleymum :T I'll just tick it off on the calendar from now on:cool:
    Further £10 has been paid in today (not in £1's but in 1p and 2p and 5p's -the girl at the bank pulled a right face and the people in the queue were whispering and commenting :o:eek: :Dso I turned round smiled sweetly and said "thankyou for their kind patience as times are very hard at the moment! " boy were they embarrassed and quickly looked away and coughed :rotfl:
    May you fill up the great clutterbucket of life and may all of your leaks be in cheese sauce:D
    Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without:cool:

    lol PCB I paid a tenner in change in as well last week. (must remember to add it to the pot rather then my bank account) and made another £20 sale today to put in it (my house must be getting more space in it it really must)

    Really annoyed as I have found £10 worth of Euro's (whatever that is in Euro money when i checked it against the exchange rate) but the post office won't change it. :mad:

    As the next time I go abroad we will likely be bartering with space aliens it'll never get spent.

    Any ideas (to make me money not line a charity tin - like they say charity begins at home).

    Hi all

    Sorry I haven't been on in an age, been putting the £ away each and every day though. Got a car boot on Saturday so might be able to add a few more.

    Keep up the brilliant efforts.
