£1.50 for me todayNot buying unnecessary toiletries 2024 26/53 UU, 25 IN0

If you have Home bargain stores by you they have sealed tins for 59p. If not the pound shops have them or B&M. £2.5o seems a lot for a tin. hugs.x:)I'd like to join the challenge please.
I was looking at some sealed tin cans the other day for £2.50. I didn't get one because I thought I should be saving the £2.50! But after reading your posts I think maybe it's money well spent. I know if I just used a coffee jar or something, I'd be opening it up in no time!Sealed pot (2010) no: 878 £719.60 :jCompleted

OK, blitzed my drawers at work this morning and found a purseful of pennies totalling the grand sum of 53p - woohoo!
Not quite sure why they were there or what I was saving them for...
Had a bit of an embarrassing turn in the car park this morning as I parked up and then spotted two shiny pennies on the floor in the back of my car. I'm scrabbling around for them, not realising that two car park attendants are keeping a rather watchful eye! Not quite sure what they thought I might be doing on the floor in the back of a car (small one at that!), not at 7.45am anyway...:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Anyways, 55p in total and my god it was worth it
