    Ha ha Footiemad, that made me chuckle!! I was rooted to the spot, in future I won't care, he didn't want it and I could find it a very good home for it!!!

  • thank you Sue-UU and Footiemad, we're slowly getting back to normal xx

    Well I had a NSD today and a no work day as my little one woke in the early hours of the morning with a pain and proceeded to have projectile vomit :( I knew she was sickening for something yesterday. Hubby came home from work this evening and put himself to bed with a migraine so I'm slightly tired but it's nearly the weekend and half term and on a positive note I have emptied his wallet of shrapnel and added 2.06 to the pot :)

    hope everyone is well, I'm going to try and get some ebay stuff listed tonight before I go to bed. Night all xx

  • Another £10 added to the pot today, reckon I have got near to £80 so far.
  • Hi Everyone

    Had a lovely day and didn't spend much.

    Shattered now so off to bed.

    Are you doing the Easter run again this year and where can we leave the eggs?

    Yes I'm still working, I'm on day 41 now, looks like there's no O/T at the weekend, so I'll be able to re-charge my batteries ready for the next round, thanks for the concern, it's appreciated :D


    Your welcome Sparky. Glad you will get a chance to recharge ready to go again.;)

    I'd be happy with that much come December jovi20, anything extra would be a bonus :D...



    Thanks ver much Footiemad, the lovely wife says something similar, but I think that's sarcasm :D :rotfl: :D....In case your wondering, I meant in regards to the being priceless. Not the spinning bow tie, aka Frank Butcher of Eastenders fame :p. That would just be wrong...on many levels :eek: :rotfl: :eek:....

    Nickyj, you'll soon be diving through crowds, and skidding across floors, after the elusive coins in no time :D.

    Right, I'm slotting in a lovely one pound coin today, the pot deserves it :)....

    Hope you've all had a good day :j.

    No sarcasm this time:D You just make me laugh...have you thought about becoming a comic...and not the paper kind:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Now I wonder is that sarcasm...:p

    Hi everyone and what a beautiful day we've had, I hope you've all enjoyed yourselves, or seeing it at least. Had a wonderful walk along the river in the gorgeous sun, terrific.


    It'd be a pleasure to have you with us, jenyking, Dory78 and teameffort. A warm welcome a:Dboard and have fun saving. :D 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.

    teameffort, Well done on your last year's savings and all the best for this year.


    Well done on making an impressive start, bexs.ua.


    Awww..thanks for your kind words, Footiemad.:)

    Good for you skilly...a good day AND holding onto the £20 - great work.:j

    I hope you had as good a day as I did, LC 2, brilliant. [Edit] I see you definitely did. Sleep well.


    A great start to the challenge, sjaarnaeh! Very wise not to keep a count.
    Just in case anyone is interested - Home Bargains have Mothers Day Cards (ex M&S) for an amazing 29p. The one I bought was actually priced at £2.75!!:D

    Great notification for everyone, blue_eyed_girl!! :T Take note of b-e-g's post above everyone, it'll save you a LOT!!:j


    Very good DF&LI!!

    HELLO again WER!!!!!:hello::D It really is soooo very good to see you popping in again!! I know you have problems getting any cash, many others are the same because of cards, but it really doesn't matter how much or how little we save, it's simply saving any cash/notes possible that really can help come December. I can only save a couple of £s a week, but it's in the pot at least. If you wish, I'll gladly add your Total to the Grand Total,...you're a member after all!! PM it to me if you wish. Good to hear of your new pot! Please come back and see us when you can - we miss you!! Love, Sue xx :) BTW you might tell your DD that she too is missed 'n all.!!


    So sorry to hear about your little one, daisygogo (though you were so sure yesterday, Mum's intuition) your hubby also. I hope they're both very much better soon - you too! My hubby used to get so many migraines then started taking Magnesium - it's worked wonders!!

    VERY good blondy!! :T


    Have a great Friday everyone, getting ready for the weekend.

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

    Your welcome sweetie..its all happening in your house isnt it. Hope the little one and Hubby feel better before too long. Good luck with the listing. I still need to sort mine out. My sister gave me a nudge to get sorted. Will start soon, but just so busy.
    Take care:A
