    Have a great day everyone, stay safe and keep saving

    Hi Everyone

    It is sooo windy here in Speke Hope none of the planes get blown into my garden:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Been to the shops but no road kill it's probably all blown into Sparky's garden.

    LO's all well and we are back to watching TV again . Just going to make some cakes but DG wants black icing !! trying to persuade him a lovely blue would be nice but no black is best!

    Oh well he is the one who will be eating them:rotfl::rotfl:

    having said that by the time he has mixed them then tasted the mixture theres not usually a lot left. These days I don't think he is supposed to lick the bowl out, but in my house it's still ok:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:so long as I get a taste too:rotfl:

    Hi all. I'm a bit behind the times on this one but would like to join. I have one of those jars with a lid that electronically tells you how much money is in the jar (£12.91 to be exact!) I will resist temptation and will not take any money out. May take a trip to poundland and buy one of those tins you can only open with a tin opener. Happy saving everyone!!!

    Hi All,

    Please may I also join?

    I have been following the challenge since just after New year, though I am finding that this challenge is adversely affected by success in the NSD challenge I am also following, I am still managing to contribute to my sealed pot at least once a week, sometimes more if I get lucky finding loose change in pockets, drawers etc.

    No target for me, anything in there when the time comes to open it up will be a bonus!

    :D

    Thanks

    78p in the pot today for me (potted it myself, so dont tell Miss Lily or i be in the dog house with her!) Really need to find some more stuff to shove on ebay as the funds are running a bit dry at the minute . . . unfortunately I dont think theres much left in the house to sell unless i pop the hubby on there, wonder how much i'd get for him . . . slightly used, a bit of wear and tear and costs a fair bit to keep running . . . hmm nope dont think i'll get many takers ^^
