    Well today ive been down the shed to pop the washing in the dryer and I spot a 2p in DH's open tool box (well he obviously wanted me to find it or he wouldnt have left his tool box open would he? :D) so I think 'well as im here better clear out the dryer trap' so get out the net and clear all the fuzz off and decide to stick a screwdriver in the trap hole . . you know . . just in case theres a rouge 20p in there ;) well had a fish about and here a chinking noise and think 'woohoo!! ive got a coin!!' so off I go and find the torch, and have a good look in the hole and I see a few silvery round things winking up at me . . .

    Well Im getting excited now and get a table spoon and a skewer and spend the next 30 minutes 'fishing' in my dryer trap, using the skewer to dislodge the build ups of fluff in various corners, brought in what I found and have got £7.03 in change :eek: :eek:

    So a whopping £7.05 in my pot today (albiet a bit dusty) from doing a bit of washing :D:D:D

    :j:j:j:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::j:j:j

    Almost wish I had a dryer now so I could look for change!

    Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

    Morning all. By golly it's coooooooooooooooollllllldddddddd today. Hope you're all keeping warm!

    Potted a lovely shiny 50p last night, and hope to pot a bit more later on this morning, once I'm back from doing the food shop.

    Have a lovely warm day all. xxx
  • Hi all,

    Haven't popped in for a while but yesterday I potted £6 and I have been potting bits and pieces of money all along. I am still getting hardly any £2 coins but I reckon this is because I am not really spending very much money at all. :T

    I still haven't covered my pot but I haven't been remotely tempted to break into it. Must cover it soon. :)
