    Hmm, took £30 out to get my hair and eyebrows done. Normally costs £26 ish so I would have potted the change however there was a special offer and in total it cost me £20. I don't know why but I don't know if I should pot the note? I would have potted the change so I don't know why I'm humming and hawing lol.

    Sue gives them out for good behaviour :D

    E.g. If you're helpful to another poster or post a really nice informative welcome you might get one but she's quite sparing with them cos she doesn't want us to take them for granted.
    I think she and sparky should have lots cos they run a brilliant thread for us :D but I expect that sounds like crawling :rotfl:
