    well after being stood up yesterday, resold the coat to someone else last night and they collected this afternoon so a lovely £1.50 in my pot, plus DH cleaned the oven today which started a complete blitz of the kitchen and cupboard reshuffle, binned all the out of date stuff in the back of the cupboards, threw away all the rubbish that didnt have a home, and found 21p so that went in the pot too :D

    My kitchen looks sooooooo much better, just got the drawers and the s*** corner (as we lovingly call it :o) to sort and that will be the entire downstairs sorted :D

    Went to co-op today and they are till spitting £5 off £20 spend coupons to be used by 28th jan, bought a load of bog roll and kitchen roll and am going back tomorrow for a load more :j can never have too much bog roll and with velvet on £3 for 9 rolls at the minute thats about 25p a roll after the discount :D:D:D

    Another power outage - I was going to look for some coins around the house so that has put a stop to that!

    Only 36p for me today.

    I did get £6 in £2 coins in change, but I'm trying a weekly cash budget and won't pot them until Friday just in case :D

    I'm so excited about getting my pot started for the year. I have a tonne of change in my purse, loads of pound coins :D I'm staying at a hotel in central manchester tomorrow night though so I've saved it for the excessive parking charges that I'm sure I'm going to have to pay.

    So it's going to be a happy start to my potting year with all the spare going in!

    Happy New Year everyone! :beer: A bit late I know (sorry) but have been away to a very soggy New Forest for a week. We stayed reasonably dry though.

    I will add another £1 to my pot tonight:)

    Hope everyone is keeping well and the pots are filling nicely.

    All the best for 2014 x
