Hi there, little_sweetie, aww bless him! Well, his dislike of change will certainly help you out. BTW, have you had that money show up in the bank yet? If not, I hope it won't be long, at least it's safe.
Hello lozzy, so, in the right place at the right time for that 1p, keep the eyes down..but snatch looks ahead every now and then or you'll smack into something or someone and if it's another SPCer...ooh you'd better be careful. Still, a simple rugby tackle should do the trick! :rotfl:Hi, I couldn't resist counting up my change before I seal it in a pot for the next year. I am starting with £8.96 in the pot. :j

but they have sent me a letter saying that they will investigate with the other bank and if the transaction is deemed as complete they will take it back again :eek: How can it be complete if my money is still in Barcl*ys machine?? I just hope common sense prevails.....
Just had to pop in here again 'cos dear FiL had given me a lottery ticket on Thursday which I just checked and I've won £10 :T I will bank half and put £5 in my (empty) purse. It seems I'm on a roll at the moment! I just hope the bank doesn't take my £250 again otherwise I'll be taking my savings out to pay off the overdraft :mad:
