    Just went to wash DH's clothes from last night and found a fiver, so have popped that in my pot - that will teach him to check his own pockets.

    Hi all.... I am still plodding away. I added about £2 to my pop today. Random bits of change after taking my niece out for the day. I don't get to see her very often so treated her to a couple of bits. Have a good weekend everyone! x

    Bah humbug...:p I hope you're feeling much better tomorrow, jakes-mum.

    Your youngsters wouldn't have thanked me for the "kiddies" remark now would they Stressed! oops! :o

    Wow, that's a lovely bit in your pot, wannabee_in_credit, a great way to save, especially as it's owed.

    What a fantastic idea, mf0u1098, another wonderful way to save. I've updated your Target.

    You're doing a marvellous job of learning your youngsters to share, mumof3plusoh. ;)

    Well done, Debt_free by 2012 and a Merry Christmas to you as well.

    Ho ho ho, your DH will love you for relieving him of that responsibility, DorsetGirl!! :snow_laug
    That's lovely for you and your niece, izzoh and well potted with the £2.

    So long as you keep on saving is all that matters, dizzybee.

    Ah, just in time, cutestkids, well done.
    Goodnight all and have a lovely Sunday.
    Have a lovely evening and a good Sunday, folks.

    Xmas market in Wolverhampton was better today than last week when we went but I prefer the ordinary market.
    Spent quite a bit around town, nearly bought some winter boots from the shop that was tjhughes, £6 a pair, but decided I have enough boots already. :A
    Managed to save £2.81 to put in pot.:D
