    Wow, the Olympics - you lucky thing! I missed going, and I'm sad I didn't.

    £7.60 last week, finally cashed in the last of my paper euro's from Greece. This week is a no bought coffee week... fingers crossed for more extra payments!

    £2.60 this week. Was going to be more but I've decided to use the £20 I made on ebay for a girls night out this weekend. Not seen them in months!

    Any change will get popped in the overpay pot.

    Have a lovely weekend everyone!

    An extra, extra payment of £7.99 for me today to make a credit card balance a nice round number. Yes, I know :o!! Xx
