    *Tries to keep herself away from the grabbit board*

    Thank you Lindylou. I hope you're feeling a bit better now crimson :( I've been feeling awful at work today, my head felt like it was going to explode again. I've been asleep for a couple of hours this evening once I got home from work and am now sitting here with my sun glasses on.

    It was my OH's step-sister's birthday this evening, so I missed out on going to visit :( I'm waiting for my OH to come home and bring me some dinner home now, (yes at nearly 10pm) and I am absolutely starving!

    I will check my purse before I go to bed to see if I have any change :)

    Didn't get to the grabbit board yet - hubster wanted some attention so I'm saving checking it out until this evening.....rather excited to see what attention sucking thing it might be!

    I woke this morning with 6 £1 coins in my purse. I got them in some change last night and thought I'd pot the smaller coins and keep the pounds just in case. In case of what? If I leave them in my purse, sure as heck I will spend them. So 2 are now in my purse to pay for the lottery syndicate for the next 2 weeks, and 4 have been potted. Whoop!

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Morning all.

    re "Grabbit Board" - some great bargains can be found ............................................ I've got a loft full of them!! :rotfl:

    I tend to stay away now, it can be addictive though. Never go there without a safety harness on. :)

    Up early and managed to book next years flights - dearer than hoped for (£50+ dearer) and nearly changed destination.
    Only spend £1.10 yesterday and put in £5.10 into s/scan till and received 4 x £1 coins.
    Only potted 2 of them, might pot the others later. lol

    £518+ potted so far.

    **** Just read Morries have the Xmas goodies out. :D

    Hello all :hello:

    I've not posted on here for ages (sorry) things have been really busy but i've been potting away. My jar was full so i've had to start a new one! :j

    Its mostly been potting leftover change in my purse and the odd pound coin but it seems to be adding up nicely. Cant wait to count it all up!! The more in there the less I have to find towards Christmas :beer:

    I hope you are all well, i'm going to make a coffee and catch up on all of your posts.

    Have a great day xx _party_
  • So, since it was mentioned, i have been checking out the grabbit board but have found nothing i'm interested in...... maybe i'm immune...

    Still feeling awful dinglefoot. Are you any better. I must admit i can now move without wanting to throw up and i am managing to at least do some work today.. I've already done almost twice as much as yesterday. I'm hotter today too which is making me feel worse, hopefully that's a sign my body is trying to fight it off.

    I have been doing rubbish with my potting. Must try harder.
