    My pot has fallen out with me, cause my DD (3) is wanting my change to fill up her wee bank for our holiday.

    I moving house and I do hope I dont need to open my pot, but least I know the money is there if I need it :)

    14p in the pot for me today, hubby left his change on the bookcase so I assumed as it was just laying there that it was obviously for me to pop in the pot :D I did leave him £1.50 for his cups of tea though so i think I was fair.

    Took DS to a martial arts class today as hes got a bit of an anger issue, takes after me, is fine for ages then something happens and he blows his stack :( talked to the local martial arts instructor and she said that the discipline would be good for him to control his temper when he gets upset. Its £7.50 a week which I thought was a good price and he really enjoyed the taster lesson so hoping he will stick to it as he was very good and had really good co-ordination for the kicks (definitely not from me!! I fall over walking down the road :rotfl:)

  • Can you sign me up please? I will actually use my 5yr old terrimundi pot for the first time!

    Just emptied my other 2 piggy banks (mainly coppers) in it. Felt satisfying! :money:

    I'd like to have £150 by the end of the year to pay for my iPhone upgrade. It's not a big target as I don't carry cash often.
