Captured 36 pennies from an account I dont use very often. Saved 100 pennies for the pot by getting dropped off by the taxi driver at my oh's house instead of mine. Am really getting into this penny capturing lark!:o

Managed to make 5000 pennies yesterday selling nappies we no longer use (cloth ones LOL)
Em586, where did you sell your cloth nappies. We've tried at car boots, they turned their noses up even though they knew they were expensive new :eek:. Ebay won't allow you to sell them anymore too :eek:. I don't want to literally throw money down the toilet, by giving them away. PM if you like instead, thanks :beer:.
Rounded up and captured a 100 of those pennies, they're now doing hard time :rotfl: ...

127 pennies found lurking at the bottom of my handbag!!
Seeing OH and his holey jeans later so may be able to capture a few more too.
Tempted to do a role call in my penny prisons to see what capacity I have. Not sure if it is a good idea or not though, don't want to be tempted to set any free!0 -
No actual pennies for me today but I did capture some virtual ones - 442 through multibuys and use of coupons at Mr T's today, not too bad for a 3240 penny shop!! Every penny's a prisoner

215 pennies captured today from an ebay sale :T
All goes into the paypal pressie account
Did manage to list a few more things on the free listing weekend so we shall see if I can make some more. Must have saved a little bit by taking advantage of the free listing, so more virtual pennies saved Free by FiftyDebt of the Moment -August NSD Challenge 14/150
