    Morning Moose!

    Your hot choc accident sounds just like something I would do, always when there is paperwork lying about! Thankfully my work is more or less paperless now so don't have that problem so much!

    Yay to the £2 coin, they add up quickly don't they.

    Have yourself a good day :D

    I was thinking of doing it too, but I need to get one of those money tins that you have to use a tin opener on, as I know I (or DH!) would dip into it if we needed change!!

    Hope you have a good meal tonight Moose, always goes down better if someone else is paying!! ;)

  • Major panic today, I paid for something on paypal on Monday & it defaults to my Lloyds account, I changed it cos I didn't have enough to cover it but it must have gone back. I checked online banking today & I'd gone into an unathourised OD. Pratically ran out of the office, to go to the bank which didn't open til 10 so had 30 mins to kill. When I went in I paid some money into and they said because I'd done that before 3.30pm I wouldn't have any fees to pay *phew*

    I did get a £2 coin in my change when I was killing time though.

    I can't wait for my meal, I'm blimming hungry now.

    :( to the panic! I hate it when things like that happen! Glad you got it sorted on time! This shows how important it is to keep checking your finances. I used to go a couple of weeks without even checking my bank!

    Glad i could share the wisdom of the saving stamps! I will let my mum know she has helped a few people without even knowing it when i see her tomorrow! :D

    I'm with Lloyds as well and religiously check online as I know that if I do ever go overdrawn for some reason, I can pay money in before 3.30pm without getting charged. They haven't always done this though, used to be quite hit and miss. I remember when I was at uni I got charged £30 for going £1.10 overdrawn, was so mad!! :mad:

    Hope you have a good evening :)
  • Morning :)

    The meal last night was really nice, had steak & chips and banoffee pie for pud :D

    No plans for today so hopefully it will be an nsd :)

    Have a great day x

    Yummy indeed!! I'm living my food through others enjoyment at the moment as trying to be super good so thank you ;)

    Fingers crossed on your nsd - have a good one Moose! x
  • I need to lose some (need to weigh myself to find out how much) before a wedding in May so have 5 weeks to do it in, so last night was a bit of a treat :)

    Just logged onto Lloyds and found out about "save the change" which is basically a scheme I could sign up for where when I use my debit card it will round it up to the nearest£ and transfer the rest into my Savings. I've signed up for it, think it will be a good way of saving because I won't really notice it :) Looks like it's easy to cancel too if I don't like it.

    It's looking good for a nsd, really fancy a bag of crisps but I will resist:rotfl:

    Hope you're having a good day choc, going to take a peek at your diary and catch up on some others.
