    Hi All, hope you are all havinng a relaxing time. I've eaten so much I'll be on a diet for years getting rid of it all again!

    £2.40 into the pot tonight - not been shopping for quite a few days, but had a wicked KFC at lunchtime which gave me some change, and then got £2 change from my even wicked-er takeaway curry tonight :o How greedy/lazy am I??? :cool:

    Steady up, JoeyGrey! Now that Christmas is over, how about starting off on an excerise regime now and saving the cash you might normally have spent on take-aways. Walk away from temptation and keep right on walking....briskly! :) Then pop the money in your pot and have a glass of water! :j

    Take care, Sue x

    Fishcakes so sorry to hear of the sad loss of your friend ((HUGS)). There's not a lot anyone can say, just reflect on the good times you had and keep the happy memories

  • Good Morning all

    Sorry I haven't posted for a while, what with a laptop charger breaking, christmas present wrapping and a poorly little girl it has been a tad hectic!

    Well over the course of the last few days (I have managed to keep count) I have put in £5.60 into my pot! Mostly found in an old handbag I was clearing out. Oh and I may have £10 from the OH if he doesn't remember I have it in my purse! Slightly devious but every little helps!!!

    Hope everyone has had a lovely christmas.

    Take care, Sue x

    Lol, don't worry Sue. I'm usually a very good girl - I've lost lots of weight on Weightwatchers in the last year and have no intention of undoing all my hard work. My sister and I start running again on Wednesday, and I go back to my meal planning and penny saving. I just allowed myself a little holiday and wow, did I make the most of it :D Today is the last day of extravagance - big family meal at our parents. I refuse to feel bad about it till tomorrow :rotfl:
