Well I found my bank card so I can finally withdraw my Boots refund and pot it (£79.50)
While cleaning my room I found another sealed tin, I sort of remember starting it at some point but must have hid it (obviously too well), sounds about 1/4 full
I also remember that I had a terramundi pig somewhere with 20 £1 coins somewhere (ran out of banking bags). I put it somewhere safe when I moved but cannot remember where, probably with all the make up items that I can't find either!! If I can find it ill remove the coins with a knife and pop them into the sealed tins. I'll aim to fill the 2 tins, 3 would be too much :rotfl:(but you never know!)0 -
Well I managed to do a bit of a clean up today, rummaged through some old handbags and found a fair amount of shrapnel, coinage and also my boots savings card
Not sure how much I found but my total so far is £32.74 woohoo :j
Now I'd say that was worth me exhausting myself for
Tomorrow's going to be just as bad as I'm helping one of my male friends find a flat, bless him he does need it urgently. I'm just praying I don't go into labour while we're at viewings :rotfl: :eek:
Hoping all is well and massive welcome to the newbies. Happy potting!!

I found in my desk drawer at work (rainy day chocolate fund)
Not laughing at you,Suzziebabe-the idea of a rainy day chocolate fund just really tickled me-I can't think of a better rainy day fund to contribute to,myself.
Today I spent money for the first time this year :eek:.Went out and did a huge grocery shop (New Year's resolution is to meal plan,so spent alot of yesterday planning and seeing what we already have in the house,today I filled the gaps).
One of the jobs I am also trying to do at the moment is sort paperwork.So I have lots of piles of "junk" in random piles on my lounge-room floor,just waiting for me to get stuck in.
Tonight I looked closer at one of the piles(but didn't start to work on it),and there was a £20 lookin' at me funny.So when I go up to bed in afew minutes,it's for the pot :eek:.
(I do remember where this note came from:last month my OH gave me some money to buy a friend of ours some beer for all the work he has done for us over the last few months-fix dishwasher and wouldn't take money for it,takes and collects our eldest daughter from secondary school when he is taking/collect his own daughter.I had taken some of the money to buy with,but left this note on the bench.)SPC #36 :staradminx 8.SPC7=£751.10 SPC8=£651.04 SPC9=£843.00 SPC10=£872.76

My pot at the moment is a washed out chutney jar from Christmas..."A smile takes but a moment...
