    3p change to pot from Mothers day cards. :)

    I put 14 items on ebay on Saturday and 10 of them have bids, one has 21 watchers!! :dance: :D It will all be going towards the final push for our deposit savings and then it's on to saving for the moving fees!!

    Well done everyone on the potting and roadkill finds! ;)

    Hey everyone.
    Blindfolded posting of shrapnel into the pot today - I am determined not to count the coinage as it's added so it will be a complete surprise in November. OH thought I was going mad, hee hee ...!!

    Sue, if I took my swear jar out with me I'd be broke within a week! I'm so good at never swearing in the daytime when the children are up.....but once they're in bed the odd expletive does creep out. And as I said before, just give me a couple of glasses of wine, and a good old rant about the ex and the jar is a winner! I highly recommend it, lol ;-)
    SPC # 115 :p

    hi everyone -

    firstly Happy Birthday Sue UU :bdaycake:

    Potted £1.83 today - a mix of change in my purse and DH's contributions!!

    I sat last night and did lots of money calculations. I always thought I was good with money, but writing it all down really does frighten you how much you spend. I'm hoping for a more money savvy year and knowing where it goes and what i have left should surely help!! I'm hoping also that any savings i can make during the year can be added to the pot. Here goes.....;)
