  • I have a small vase on my kitchen window full of copper. I have just counted it and I have £4.44 to start me off on my SPC.

    Not sure how much I will add to that over the next week as every penny will be needed to feed the family when they come home for Christmas. I am really looking forward to spending time with my children

    only 14p for me today

    jakes-mum, tut tut, there's no 'only' about it. It's 14p and that's grrrreat!
    We wandered around the shopping centre quite happily for a hour or two (it was great with no one in the shops!) and then wandered outside only to discover over half the shops were closed and all the taxis and buses had stopped running!!

    :rotfl::rotfl:4 days before Christmas you should have known there was a reason why there was nobody in the shops :rotfl::rotfl:
    Hope everyone is keeping warm and everyone is ready for Christmas :)

    Here at Kerfuffle Kabin, Erm 'yes' and *cough* 'no'.

    $1.75 in the Sealed Pot for me, and 25c in my American Change Pot, somebody sneaked it into my change tch.

    I last counted £2.60 in my tub the other day. My fiance raids his wallet for 1, 2 and 5ps for me to take home on Sunday nights and I plop them in when I get home. I came home today and I still haven't done it so I'll either do it tonight or tomorrow morning.

    You're doing very well, Blakesmummy, especially taking in maternity leave.

    Hi youngmummy,

    I didn't want to read and run after reading this, so a virtual big hug to you and I hope you feel some relief and a lot better soon.

    Take care of yourself.
