Hi Bargainlover08
At least you'll be able to pot some tomorrow then. I am constantly amazed about the amount some lucky people can put in their post, over £5 is a lot to me

Don't worry, bargainlover and mommyof4, you're not alone I promise you. I struggle to get a £5er a week - but - whatever we get, it's savings and could make the difference between having enough for most things over Christmas and not doing so. There are many of us just like you, but we're all saving what we can when we can - be proud of it and yourselves! :j

Oh bother, LC 2, I was forgetting about tothers in Toy Story for the mo, though what of poor Jess, you forgot her! I still haven't had the courage to watch it yet...not since you mentioned that the end was soooooo sad. My GKs have echoed that too...am sure I'd be just so distraught. I'm away to me bed before I choke on me tears....!

Another day tomorrow folks, save what you can, but if you're not able to, don't worry and look ahead to when you're next able to.

Sue x Anyone wishing to join, just ask, you're more than welcome, it's never too late.

Morning youngmummy
Try giving your DP a Chinese burn for breaking into your pot, that'll teach the cad . Of course you're allowed to restart, there are no rules against that, we just want to encourage saving

lol thanks sparky. hope everyone is well. x

Evening my fellow potters...I am a very tired bunny tonight. Left the house at 630am and returned home at 9.30pm.:eek:

I had started to do my catch up read but keep yawning. So I will just say this...fed Rosie £1.66 and that includes 30p in coppers and 1 x 5p that one of my lovely colleagues donated to my cause when I saw all his change and said how lovely they would look in my pot the next thing he gave me a handful.. bless him. I did note some £ coins but didn't want to push my luck :rotfl::rotfl: Think I will save that for another day!!!

That me done off to bed. Hope everyone had a good day.

Happy potting for tomorrow. x

Morning Sue & LC2
So looking forward to this trip, it's something I've wanted to do for a long time and the good thing is with all the overtime I've been doing lately I've managed to pay cash for it, I did pay by CC but I get points on the card, this morning I've paid the lot back to the CC, so I'm in a win win situation, a couple of years ago it just would have gone onto the CC without thinking about it. There's a lot to be said about Martin Lewis & MSE :T

Waiting for the pools man to come in this morning he always brings me £2 coins, I wonder how many he has for me today

mommyof4

Only £1 in the pot again for me today so far. Have to go to Mr M tonight though, so may have some change. DS is having a Birthday party of Sunday so i am considering buying a cake (shock, horror). i know it's not very MSE but I just can't face baking I'm so doggone tired. Also don't know when I'd get the time, so much going on.

I'm so jealous of everyone talking about their trips to Poland, love to go there. I have read so much about the horrors etc. It would be amazing to visit. Hope you have a great time Sparky.

Off to dig out my ww booklets, need to lose a few Ibs, and today is the first day I've had a smidgen of inspiration.... just hope the willpower follows lol.
Have a good day everyone

Morning all
5 X £2 coins off the pools man this morning for the Summer 2011 fund, my sealed pot has been neglected the last couple of days so 5 X £1 coins going in when I get home later.

mommyof4 the trip to Poland is something I've wanted to do since I was a kid, DW and I are sooo looking forward to going, we're going in November, so hopefully it'll be freezing cold.

Have a great day everyone, stay safe and keep saving
