Morning Mrs MP
If the previous occupier of the desk is still employed at your workplace, then morally you should give them the change back. If they don't work there anymore, then you could see if any of your colleagues know where the person has gone to so you can try to get the change back to them. If all that fails you tried your best, I would say then finders keepers

Hi all

Thanks for the advice sparky and LC2. At the office there's only me and the boss (who doesn't take change back) He fired the previous person so no chance of chasing them to return it.
Hmmm charity box or sealed box?

On other note, 55p for the pot today

Morning Everyone

Where did the sun go? Staying in today definitely not park weather. Might do some cooking DH has given up eating healthy, that's if he ever did, so might make a nice syrup pudding for after tea.

My GS was given a certificate at school for having lovely manners.

I am very proud of him.

Wish I could go to the park, release my inner child lol. Well done to your GS,:T so many children these days lack basic manners, good to see not all is lost.
Enjoy your evening all, I need to go think about what to make for dinner now. I really hate cooking

Hi Sparky,

I've just signed up for the website and reading the threads your sealed pot challenge sounds like a great way of starting out. Could i join your challenge please?

I've been saving anything upto 50p for a couple of months now so i'll count that up this evening and start from there. Off to the hardware store to buy a big jar

Thanks

thanks Sue I will certainly make a note of whats taken out when the time comes - I will still continue on until December it will just be a lesser amount come then as the first half of the years pot will have gone

Have to say HM is more willing to put money in the pot now she knows its for our holiday :beer:

Sue-UU

It'd be a pleasure to have you with us, ManagingDebt. A warm welcome aboard and have fun saving. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 3 of page 1. Please read through the 1st post as it'll let you know exactly how the challenge works. NB. Please pop your number on your sig, it helps so very much. NB. Pots are emptied on 1st December 2011, thank you.

Good to see you, and all the best with saving.

I'd sort of guessed you'd still carry on til Christmas after the holiday, weeclick. Good to hear about HM's pleasure too.

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

I found 1p on the floor today! Wahoo!! It's only 1p but as they say, every little helps!

evening all, hope everyone is well. Where did the sunshine go ? I can't believe how miserable the weather was today after yesterday.

I had a NSD today but I've managed to obtain a handful of shrapnel from hubby although he too was supposed to have a NSD but I strongly suspect that despite taking packed lunches he is still buying 'posh' coffee at work rather than the free stuff in the vendor ?!! I guess I shouldn't complain too much, after several years of encouragement he is finally taking a packed lunch !!
