I found a penny yesterday! It was still shiny and new looking too! Snaffled it and added it to my penny pot. I'm not great at snaffling, it's something I need to work on as many pennies pass me by this way.
I think it's because I always wear dresses so am a bit self conscious at bending down. I get my penny but at what price to those poor people seeing me flash my nether regions around like a smug baboon!0 -

Back to work yesterday after a week off and found one penny yeterday and one today - talk about doing things bit by bit. OH also just made the mistake of dumping his loose change on the table so 8 pennies also snaffled there.
Chin up everyone, it's not just capturing the literal pennies but also saving the virtual ones as well - something I did well on Monday at Mr T's when we saved over £10 on reduced items (enough meat to see us through at least 6 weeks), multibuys netted us another £10.41 and I had £14 of vouchers so a shop that was nearly £100 at top price actually cost me only £66:)Every penny's a prisoner
