    "hope your own one is as [STRIKE]big![/STRIKE]" as much, redbull, definitely 'as much'! ;)

    Keep on looking is places similar to the car, redbull, you never know where you may have put some absentmindedly.

    Very well done to jakes-dad on all he's saved through NOT smoking!! He's a far healthier chap as a result so good for him!! :T

    His Total isn't to be included on there though....is it jakes-mum. Well, the answer to that is obviously no as he isn't a member. Of course he could change all that and join us! :whistle: I suppose he would have had more in his pot ha a certain someone not always been 'snaffling' at it - your words not mine! :p

    Please pass a huge congratulations on to him from me please, as a former smoker (almost 13 years free) I truly appreciate what it took for him to quit!!! :T:T

    Keep away from your pot though mind jakes-mum!! Ticking bomb remember!

    As we're on a new page, a quick reminder that after today it's only 10 days til the pots are opened!!

    Have a lovely evening all.

    Sue x

  • Thank you - I'm trying to save £100 but after every £10 i wll probs add into my bank because I'm useless at keeping that amount of money in my jar
    >.< I think 12p from my total is coins found on the floor.
    My boyfriend hates me picking up pennies on the floor but I guess a penny picked up is a penny earned. :laugh:

    Another day, another few pennies! Added about £1 worth of change this evening.

    More excited now!

  • *Looks in purse eagerly for some change she might have missed*

    £1 in the pot tonight, there's absolutely no reason for this except I like seeing it look really really full and struggle to fit in! Also, if I put this £1 in now, it will leave me with the exact money that I need tomorrow for my choir practice and I won't be tempted to spend it in the reduced aisle of Mr A's!
    Thank you competition posters!
