    Morning everyone
    Still very busy at the moment. Had to open the Chicago & New York 2013 spending fund tin because we got a good deal on our dollars, so the first part of my total without the sealed pot total stands at £660.50 (£580 in £2 coins & £80.50 in 50p's). I will put this figure into my signature.

    A warm welcome to our newest members, enjoy the banter but most of all enjoy saving.

    Have a great day everyone, stay safe & keep saving

  • Thanks Sue that I can include the Farepack money, although still waiting for the cheque:mad:
    Managed to pot £2.36, this was change from the kids lunch money.

    We are off on hols tomorrow. :j We are going to Kirky Steven staying in an outdoor centre that we have hired as there are 17 of us. (4 families, 8 adults and 9 kids)

    Can't wait. Just spoke to a lady after dropping her GD off at school and she is is origionally from not far from there. She has told me about a place to visit not far from the place that is the highest waterfall in England. That is now on the list of things to do. Hopefully if the weather is kind we want to climb Scafell Pike too.

    We also have my God daughters birthday to celebrate.

    Hopefully will be able to pot after the hols.

    Have a good half term if you are off. x

    Now now you two! That's ok, sparky, given the dollars lark I reckon I'd have done the same thing, daft if you hadn't really.

    Have a wonderful time, mumof3plusoh, just go careful and mind the weather if you climb Scafell Pike!

    WOW, LC 2, Warsaw should be great to go to! I thought sparks had been there, but we'll soon see.
    Enjoy your day, all, keep saving,stay healthy and stay safe!
