  • found my first roadkill today! yay!! :) was in home bargins, and a little girl dropped a 2p and 1 p ( she was about 4) but her mum said, oh its only 3p just leave it, then they walked off. They looked pretty well off too, so dont think they will miss it. after they turned around the corner i quickly snapped it up haha then on the way out of the same shop, there was another 1p so 4p total in roadkill for me today haha
    ohh and while i was there, i picked up 2 more sealed tins, for later on when i fill these. only 59p each, never seen them that cheap before, i usually get mine in poundland.
    about £12 ish went in my pots today, dont seem to count anymore, dont wanna know whats in it haha

    Finally left the premises today & got some change, so 3 golden clunks for me :)
  • I've used the jar which had golden syrup in, which I used for my christmas gingerbread....I have washed it!! cut a hole in the lid, and glued the rim of the jar. This is for my small change, as its a fairly big one!!

  • Hi all,

    Please can I join too?

    Would love to see how much I can find in my purse, and Hubby is constantly leaving his change lying around & so far hasn't clocked me 'borrowing' some :D

    Have decided to start tomorrow (when I've found a container!!)
    96 items decluttered so far in 2013 :)
