    Hello everyone :D...

    Wish I 'd win the lottery, at least I wouldn't have to fix stuff all the time :rotfl:. Naaaaa, scratch that - I'd probably get the 'big guilt' for throwing the money away on shiny new things :eek:.

    Hope you're all enjoying yourself :j:D:j.

    Well if i'd have won the 109 million on the Euromillions I'd most definitely pay off some of your debts. I'd want to help out all the lovely people in my life. No point being rich and not having to worry about money if all the people around you are still suffering.

    Then i'd buy myself a big shiny Harley Davidson :D after doing all that good i'd deserve a present :D its good to dream!

    On the potting front, i'm not doing well at all. I am trying but i never seem to have any change. I have started potting £2 coins though to try and make up for my lack of potting.

    I hope you all had a good weekend. I painted me nails for the occasion

    That was my entire contribution though as i was working :(

    Hi all 2p road kill found by my youngest. Havent saved anything in weeks am falling behind my £1 a day target will hopefully catch up:)

    Am really worried about money at the moment as when my boy goes to uni I get no tax credits or child allowence for him which is £260 a month:eek: which is a quater of the money I have coming in, dont know what I'm going to do!! Am very distressed.

    Oh alli what a worry for you :( It's a lot of money to lose. I don't know how to help, I'm afraid, but I'm sure others on here will have ideas. Try not to let it cloud how proud you are of your son going to Uni. Things will work out, have a <<HUG>>

    Only 20p potted today... but the sun has just come out! :j

    Have a lovely day all x

    69p into the SP today and paid back the £2 into my terramundi after having to do a frantic knife job on it when we were leaving to go swimming and I realised I had no change for the locker key

    today was a good day as i found 5p at the bus station and a couple kindly gave me £2.18. I look upon it as karma coz i gave away loads of pickle and vinegar yesterday to my local street party. The 2 could even be connected i don't know.

    I have a confession to make - I took the contents of my pot into the bank to pay in. However the coin counting paying-in machine wasn't working and I didn't have time to wait for the huge queue at the cashiers' desks. So I ended up hauling it back home and putting the coin bags back in my pot.

    Karma at work me thinks! So I've been potting more cash again.

    Potted £5.30 last week, sadly not going to be potting too much at the moment due to the Chiropractor (please don't get me started on the NHS)

    Well my son is now the proud owner of his very own bank account, he was a little disappointed when the bloke said 'you get your own cash card! . . . it will be with you in 5 days' seems he thought the bloke would just produce one from his top drawer :o
    He's all excited as ive set up a SO for £10 a month into the account for pocket money (little does he realise this is me teaching him budgeting from an early age ;)) and he opened it with the cheque his aunt gave him for his birthday (another shock for him, yes son they take 5 days to clear, sorry about that) and the random £7.73 I had in his savings account :rotfl:
