    25p for my pot and £1 for oh... The pots are getting heavy and the sound is now that of money clinking together rather than the bottom of the tubs :)

    Hi all, had £10.13 left in my purse after not going shopping this week so that is headed straight for the pot. We're going out for a meal tomorrow to celebrate DH's birthday next week, going to get the cash out and whatever's left will be in the pot too.
    Hugs to all.

    Have managed to save £4.27p for the pot this week as I havent left the house. It's suprising how much I do spend on rubbish:eek:Have started to watch the "flylady" on youtube which was good today. Am a real clutter queen and need to focus on decluttering this year and losing weight!:o Best wishes and big hugs to you all:heartsmil:heartsmil:heartsmil:heartsmil:heartsmil:heartsmil
