  • Well done everyone.

    New carpet fitted yesterday and looks fab. Just need to sort the rest of the house now!:rotfl:

    £4.21 potted today. £2 for yesterday and £2 for today. Found 1p on bedroom floor and 20p on hubby's computer table. Both safely put in the pot.:T

    Jakes mum that is amazing that money is coming out of you like that. Roll on the paper kind. When that happens let me know your secret.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Need to get motivated to go to M & S, then all done.

    Have a great day everyone.:xmassmile:xmastree::xmassign::santa2:

    Morning everyone
    Sparky reporting back, went AWOL yesterday due to a dodgy re-heated king prawn fried rice, which knocked me for six. Anyhow, 5 X£2 coins for the Chicago & New York 2013 spending fund, 12p tea room change, plus my usual £2 going into the sealed pot when I get home tonight.

    Hope everyone is well, stay safe & keep saving

    Afternoon Potters,

    Just been to local for our end of year lunch - I had saved a fiver as you get this delicious roast beef bap, gravy and roast potatoes for £2.99 and then head of department paid so I just put my £5 note in the money tin. Feels really good :D

    Last day of work tomorrow and then I can have a lie in every day till next year :p
