    40p roadkill (well locker kill) care of DH who found it when he went to the gym :D and then another 37p out of DH's pocket as I decided to stock up the 'shop' and he wanted a choccie bar. I insisted the thieving had to stop so he grudgingly gave me all the change he had in his pocket to pay for it ;)

    Update on the tooth, its veeeeeeeeery wobbly and DD is now happily wiggling it and is avidly talking about the tooth fairy coming to visit, and will she visit tonight if it comes out while shes asleep :eek: down side is she twice went to the loo for a wee but couldnt go so a bit worried the infection is back :( so stuffed her full of drink before she went to sleep, rather she woke me up in the night needing a wee and going than suffering tomorrow at school :(

  • Evening everyone, just a quick check-in as I am excited to report that I am now over halfway towards my target, whoopee! If I continue to do so well I might just have to revise it upwards; I love a challenge, me :D

    Decided to bag up the £2 coins as the little cow pot was full; I wasn't in a separate challenge for these so have put £40 in the pot today. I like saving these in my little pot cos I know it holds £50 worth of two pound coins comfortably, so it's an encouraging way to see the savings grow! None for ages, and I scooped up £10 in £2 coins this week, yay :)

    I like the idea of using paypal as a holding pot (sorry, I forgot who suggested it :o); that stash currently stands at £33 with more to go in this weekend after some more fleabay sales. Feel an even bigger cupboard clear out coming on now... DH wants to know if it can be a new telly fund. I think you might guess what my answer was :rotfl:

    Nighty night, keep well, and happy potting x

    Morning All,

    30p in the pot today, and heading off to my folks once again to continue with fence painting.....actually they are kindly giving me a change of job today, and I'm painting the summer house. :)

    Morning all.

    Just 2 x 20p coins potted and I don't count "part £'s", so they will add to my final "surprise". lol

    Thank you for all your lovely congratulations! Just hoping baby J will be a fantastic money saver unlike his dad :D... I say his, we dont actually know that bit yet

    After finally deciding to re decorate our bedroom Ive been on the moving all the junk out so OH can strip the wallpaper and managed to find a whole £5.24 in change scattered in various places (mainly under the bed) was a nice surprise seen as my current ebay listings dont seem to be getting any attention... I am nearly tempted to start selling on FB atm, but hoping things are going to pick up soon, there must still be some non money savers out there :D
