afternoon all, lovely day here we took kids to zoo (and dh was on best behaviour) and I found £10 :eek: !!! 1p, 2p !! It's definitely my new hobby now lol. I was going to give the tenner back but i didn't know who had dropped it and as it was so busy dh told me to keep for ice creams...i felt so guilty after though
!
Not a nsd. £20 on petrol. £4 on bread, and a few sweets for kids (and it reminded me why i avoid the co-op so bl00dy expensive). Petrol was not budgeted for as we've gone over the budget now (after paying MIL's petrol) so luckily we had £20 left in there! Now the bank is down to £1.54 :eek:! The bread & sweets came from my pocket money :cool:
NSD tomorrow, has to be really :rotfl: I is broke now!
My father called and is still having ds1 over for some of easter, will keep him busy hopefully and away from the x-box & ps3 for a while :cool:. Anyway must go, dinner on & i'm starving!Emergency Fund- £717.77

Hey DFW :wave: good on you for finding a tenner. Don't feel guilty! I make a point of looking out for lost and lonely money
. Apart from the regular pennies I find, I've also caught a £5 note as it was blowing down the high street, £20 that was dropped in a car park and then in France one year, I found a 20 euro note in a SM car park!!
My OH thinks I'm nuts or lucky! I don't really care which I am:p.
