    I know I'm a bit late with this one but could I join ? I tend to put my shrapnel into a jar when I remember but this is a great incentive to do it more often. I had my own little savings jar last year which was full of shiney coins, etc but my hubby started dipping into it to pay the window cleaner etc so I'm going to seal my box with leftover christmas wrapping paper to prevent him stealing !! My goal is to save 500.00 by Christmas :)

    Happy sunday everyone :j

    its Miss Lilys 3rd birthday today so have had the family round and we are all stuffed with sandwiches, sausage rolls, chinease snacks, sausages wrapped in bacon, crisps, pretzels, trifle and birthday cake :D

    Just put the roast on for later (roast beef with yorkshires - gluten free and normal versions :D - roasties, veg and stuffing :j)

    My nana came to the 'party' aswell and bought 3 pairs of my earrings :eek: (felt bad charging her but she wouldnt hear of it bless her) so have put £3 from that (kept the other £6 incase of emergency bread/milk run) and 35p from a manic rush to shops after i realised I had forgotten bowls and napkins! makes a nice donation of £3.35 for the pot today :D:D:D

    Happy Birthday to Miss Lily!! :bdaycake:Hope she's having a fabulous day!

    All this talk of roast dinners is really setting my mouth watering... We're having roast chicken, but not till later - nom nom!! :D Might also have to crack open the bottle of red I was saving, fancy a bit of a treat!

    £2 for the piggy pot today as a NSD for me meant I didn't spend the change in my purse, whoop whoop!

    Have a lovely evening all ;)
