  • I've been trying to empty anything under £1 coin into the pot on a daily basis. Just over a quid today. Found about the same in staff room roadkill!! :j

    Also have a £2 pot so un?fortunately, I got 3 of these in my change today, so they've gone too. All in all, a successful day!

    I've never actually found roadkill, but I'm super motivated this year, so I'm starting 2mo. That's if the snow doesn't cover it all!!!

    Have a good day everyone!

    Janey, glad you're feeling better now. Well done on the parking fee in the pot. Better in there than the car park machine.
    Hugs to all who need one.

    My first roadkill woo hoo only 1p but i still got all excited lol. im loving this saving its stopping me buying stuff when i really don't need it which will hopefully mean when i get to my target weight i can spend my lovely savings on ME for a change :-)

    Brilliant news, tizzi!! So good to hear how delighted you are to be saving so well too. Keep it up tizzi!!

    I'm so pleased your op is behind you now, Janey and that you're feeling so much better. An uncanny twist of good fortune with your OH not being able to stay with you at hospital! I'm so pleased you've sorted your other parking 'problem'. All the best for a good recovery, Janey. :)

    OK princessdawnie, I've removed the Target, no problem.

    You're 2p better off than me, Rosy!

    All the best with your cash tomorrow, ETO. ;)

    Very many thanks indeed, mumof3plusoh, sammy and elizabunny for the get better toe (!!) wishes. You're a really lovely lot of special friends here.

    Marvellous Richy, you're doing really well.
    Have a lovely Friday folks.
