    Hello :wave:

    New to this thread, we (OH and I) have decided to save copper & 5ps in a jar. It was emptied Christmas week so only a small amount in it £2.88 and OH put 9p in today.

    We are going to empty pockets/purse each evening and will update signature as we go.

    Good luck to everyone :T

    PS thankyou Sue for changing my number :)
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    Reckon I'm on a roll at the moment! Was lurking around the top of the fridge this morning (no, I don't know why either!) and discovered a whole pot full of tuppences and pennies-woohoo! :j
    Have 'potted' £2.22 in tuppences, £1.32 in pennies and a random 5p that was hiding in there! Then this evening, I found a shiny new 2011 minted 50p that I'd squirreled away due to it being so pretty and shiny! So,into the pot it went too :D

    Also managed to get a nice £2 coin in my change lunchtime, so that's gone in for a cuddle with the rest of them. All in all, £6.04 banked in the pot! :T

  • Wow guys. Can't believe how many new posts I've just read through.:eek: Fabulous to see so many people here though:D:D:D

    No pennies for me as I haven't been spending, but am waiting on £60 that OH owes me which will go straight in.

    More exciting though - my CC debt will be below £10k next month.:beer: Yaaaaaaaaay!!! Go Me:A:A:A
    :grin: Save me from spending...
