    Congratulationsssssssssssssssssss Lookingtothefuture :j :j :j

    Sighhhhh well Miss Lily went back to nursery today an when I picked her up she had a massive bump on her chin, complete with cut. Because the play area was so icy they put down the barrier and took them all out into the car park for a run around and my Lily finds the one tiny bit of ice out there and slips over on it :eek: so just another scab to add to all the pox scabs covering her *oh how I miss the rolls eyes smiley*

    On a slightly good/bad note, got a card through the door saying I had an under postaged letter at the sorting office (£1.58 thank you very much :mad:) went to pick it up and its a £10 Primark giftcard win :j :j I have emailed the company my displeasure about having to pay to collect my win and someone is looking into it for me :D:D

    Hi JAKES-MUM

    Oh poor Miss Lily she really is in the wars!!

    Congratulations on that win though I got a DM £5 tesco gift card yesterday well pleased!!

    Someone said they are only valid for 3 months though!!

    potted 8p yesterday, but i have to go to tesco's for cat food and wilko's for bird food today. Feeling very tired from my treatment yesterday. Might try to squeeze in a nap as well.
    Was debt free then ex walked out and COVID hit.
  • So I created my pot last night out of an empty liquitabs box! Then I went around the house and collected every coin I could find - including various jars we've just been throwing change into over time. Counted it all up and have £75.61 to start my official pot off with! Can't believe I had £75 lying around the house with no real purpose for it! I don't tend to spend money during the day as I bring my lunch with me etc - but am going out this weekend so am likely to end up with loads of extra change I can throw in the pot!

    I have a box every week to GRAZE on, lol. If yours is the same good luck giving it up. It is soooo yummy :)


    I will be strong! The website is quite useful for snacky ideas, but I think I can put nibbly bits in a little pot for myself- and pot the saving, naturally! I do sometimes wonder if I'm being unnecessarily tight though.

    Congratulations lookingtothefuture.

    rosyq, it's good to hear your daughter got the job.
