    Wow some great potting going on :D

    Well I've had 2 lovely £2 coins today to feed my big terramundi's belly!

    Also had 40p change from paying for local papers - but have decided to cancel these now as more often than not I don't get time to read it so its money wasted - now it can just add to what can go in the pot :j

    Decided to also pot a fiver from the £15 I had in my holding pot rather than it all as its still 2 weeks til payday :eek:eek :eek

    Wanted to celebrate finishing/emptying a large bodywash so another one has come out from the toiletries stash.
    Will pot the remaining tenner if its still there day before payday x

    On another good note used vouchers from supermarket today and that added to another lets be sensible food shop will mean that I should have just about £60 to pot :j :j but again want to hang onto this until payday - just incase x

    Welcome new potters and good look with your saving :hello

    Sue UU thankyou for my juicy star - that was a surprise - unfortunately no one wants to be in the chemo & RT club but its amazing how everyone supports each other there are some really inspiring members :grinheart

    I did see 5p on the floor when I was in the newsagents earlier but felt too embarrassed to pick it up as someone was looking! :o Does anyone else feel embarrassed when picking up money off the floor if there are other people about? Thanks. :)

    Welcome to the club madrabbitgirl :wave: in answer to your question . . . nope! never :D I just grin broadly at everyone else enjoying the thought that I got there before they did :rotfl: Free Money! :D :T :D :T

    Found a spare £1 so chucked that in the pot for the birthday card saving and also a spare 70p I had in my purse :D

    can feel some weight in my tin now :j:j
