I have been missing for a long time as well, but need to get back on the wagon :rotfl:
This may sound a silly question but how do you get e mail alerts from this thread, that may just be in motivation that I need ??
Thanks

Does anyone else out there pickup change off the floor???
We definately do... we sulk if there are no finds on our outings...
my local coop is a good one ...26p the other day for just standing in a queue lol.
Good to see some old names back in here..
got a bit of a shock the other day reading something somewhere about a £5 a day habit..... spending on nothing important it means... it amounts to over £1800 a year... I am lucky I dont do that but am trying to make son & his GF realise why they got no money:mad:.
Betty the Very does just have to go.
ToniLiz get your tin and go haggle with AA or Green Flag - its too expensive not to have cover.
PLMBL - its all there ... chin up

Hello everyone
This morning I was looking for a paper clip and found £1.58 in change which went into my pink pots. I have 4 pots in which there are coin bags and I put change into them once bags are full I pay them into my Treats fund. This is in a bank I have to go out of my way to get to, so money stays there longer.

Hiya, go to 'Thread tools' on the green bar above, and select 'subscribe'. You can then tell it how often you want to receive emails. I do one a day.
Hope that helps!
PS; glad you're back on the wagon too0 -

Happy Saturday guys.
Thanks for the advice about the RAC, Lancashire Lassie and Betty. Funnily enough, had some blurb from the AA offering a deal so will give them a call and go into battle! Determined to get a better offer from somewhere. 17-year old son now driving so need some cover for him.
Have found me a tin so will be popping in all spare cash and doing a total soon and updating my signature as October amount is sadly lacking...!
Nice to have new gang-members and welcome back to others.
Have a good weekend everyone. Keep rattling those tins..!Sealed Pot Challenge - No: 223

Hi everyone, it's good to read you are all still doing so well. I've been missing for a few weeks feeling a bit sorry for myself because of this awful predicament I'm in. But feeling sorry for myself won't get me out of the mess so it's head down and back on to it. Having said all that though I've only managed a paltry £2.21 extra this week (so far). Still, every little helps.0
