    Evening all :hello:

    I added another 28p last nite after shaking my jar at DH. (getting de ja vu altho can't remember posting this yet- sorry if I'm repeating myself!)
    A pathetic 3p in tonight nicked from poor DH's pocket... It's all there was lol.

    Oh, but added 50p cos my dad gave me a lift home from work and saved me £1.30 bus fair, I know that doesn't add up- but I didn't actually have the £1.30- hence the lift!

    So now we have about 50p to last us until Tuesday! Fab! :o

  • Hello all

    After spending many hours looking at great threads on this site today I have just registered and would very much like to join your challenge.

    I have a change pot that I put £2 coins in another pot for 50p's............I have been doing this since the middle of Dec 2010, with all good intentions of using the £2's for Christmas gifts for family and friends and the 50p's for a pre Christmas night out with the hubster.

    Just 10p into the whiskey jar for me today, However... sent hubby to work with a fiver as i had the oven cleaner in the oven and forgot to getsome bread out so couldnt bake it either, so will make sure ig et the change back off him for the jar :) also got very bored whilst at home today and counted the whiskey jar change! I have £11 86 in there and wont have any idea on the cinders tin until its full! now to decide whether to change the whiskey jar money to post into the cinders tin or just leave it filling up?
    also phoned about a job today so will get the application form through the post soon, chef in a nursing home for £9ph, also where i was working at the safari park are looking for permanent staff so may apply there too.

    Good luck with the job applications....just think you will have more pennies to pot when you are successful..note when not if. Think positive and the job will come. Good Luck:)
