Anyway, I found a stash of cash in the kitchen today, nooo I tell a lie, it was more like a light spattering of multicloured coinage
:rotfl:
. I wonder where it's going then
?

I have just remembered I found x 2 1p's in road kill last night. Whoop! Whoop! :j:j
How can someone get so excited over roadkill.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
One was lying between the tramlines, I saw it glistening as I looked down, but walked on, but then without a thought for the trams I turned back and bent down for a closer look and there it was winking at me, so popped it in my bag for safe keeping. I really cannot remember where I found the other one though. Scratches head.
Anyway they are both safely tucked away. 2p for Rosie then so far today.

Im disappointed to say that I had to break into my pot last week as I had a big bill that needed paying :sad:
But I have bought myself a shiny new pot which Im keeping especially for £1, £2 coin and notes. £10 added today to start me back off
Have got another pot for any change under a pound that I wont be counting along the way as I would like it to be a surprise.
Happy saving everyone!
Btw I would have loved one of those big pink piggy banks too!Sealed Pot Challenge Member No 340 - £3.52 so far...0 -
