    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Photogenic I've been Money Tipped!
    Somewhere around here I posted that our washing machine was making an awful noise whenever it spun - the main cause is now in my PIN money. It would appear that £1 coin was in the machine. No idea how it got there or when but there it was Saturday morning sitting there being washed :doh:

    On the way back from my nans Saturday afternoon I found 2p so that's gone in the pot as well. OH doesn't think I should pick money up off the floor when we're out. I've told him straight that every penny counts and now he just walks on ahead Our daughter on the other hand, won't walk past ANY money in the street without trying to pick it up. I'm still trying to convince her that the 10p thats been superglued to the pavement around the corner can't be picked up. :rotfl:

    All I'm waiting for now is our car to come back from the garage. I'm hoping it will be back before Friday as we're going away for the weekend to an engagement party at in-laws. If it does, then I'm going shopping in Debenhams for some bits and bargins. We keep getting gift cards for there from grandad-in-law who still hasn't acknowledged after numerous times of telling that there isn't a Debenhams in Liverpool so those vouchers can sit unused for MONTHS (try 18 months last time). I think its about time I had a look at the food processors, or some new bedding ;)

    Virtual Savings : £5.50 (includes the £4 OH owes me)
    PIN Total : £2.00
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    My virtual savings probably come to quite a lot this month due to me checking the filters in both dishwasher and washing machine and then running them empty with vinegar :D

    Both problems cured without calling out an engineer :D

    Well done moggins :j

    I have just taken the plunge and bought a breadmaker as I hope it will stop me "just popping to the supermarket" and spending on stuff I did not really need!
