    So nice to see that everyone seems to have had a good Chrissy.


    Ours was not so hectic as some as we don't have smallies in the house any more, but we had a good day all the same and went to see some of the family on Boxing day.


    Potted my three days monies so another £3 in the pot :j


    I had already decided to avoid the sales this year and so not be tempted to spend money I don't really need to spend and have more spending money for my hols in case I see something different to buy :rotfl:


    Hope you all have a great Saturday

    Thank you for the welcome! I bought a set of 4 big baked bean tins (you know the ones! :D) off Ebay last year, so will make one of those my sealed pots officially tomorrow! It's always nice thinking you've saved when you so easily could have spent it..something I need to think about this year coming up! :D

    Ahh he understands Sue and has commandeered my ipad as compensation, AND used it as a way of convincing me he can have a sleepover with 2 friends before they go back to school! :eek: :D I'm annoyed though as mine was only 2 months old :(

    Ooooo your all making me feel really guilty! I wanted to go to the sales! DH bought me a zip up hoodie for Christmas which takes my grand total of non holey jumpers/jackets to 1 :rotfl: I wanted to get another one but your all saying its bad to go shopping! :eek: :rotfl:

    No pennies yet, but it was pocket money day yesterday :j :j DH already spent his *rolls eyes* not sure how as he was in bed asleep all day, but still managed it! Mine went in my stash :D

    Rummaging in my bag I found a £5 note, yay! I think I put it there for lunch money one day, but now it is sat neatly in my pot.

    I was determined to avoid the sales (and temptation) but the Lush online sale crept into my view......... and........ ah well just a few bath bombs!
      To those who are given much, much is expected

        £2025 in 2025 = £680.60

          1. Morning everyone. Have emptied my pockets and put £1.55 in my pot #204

            Sound heavy when I shake it - all that copper ;)
