    Had to venture out today to buy firelighters for the wood burner. Shop assistant didn't have any notes in the till, so very good news for my pot - saving a whopping £16.80 yippee :j:j

    A miserly 12p for me today - though I am out later so perhaps a bit more shrapnel hopefully. Hugs to those under the weather. Meowhouse - hope you had good news today, have been thinking of you.
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Evening all, hope your weather is as mild as mine.

    Potted 2 x £1 coins tonight.
    No road-kill, not even a solitary 5p!!
    Very little spent, just bits and bob from mainly the bargain shops.
    Tesco (if you saved the 60p coupons from the mag) have Velvet 4 roll packs of toilet rolls on offer @ 2 packs for £3. £1.80 or 90p per pack using 2 x 60p coupons.

  • THANkYOU everyone for your good wishes - scan went ok, should hopefully get the results next week, feeling very tired today tho - strange because I've been feeling much better of late and not so fatigued. But just having a lazy night had a bath already and now in bed with the tv in the background catching up on the much more important potting news!!

    Jakes-mum sorry to here miss Lily is unwell, hope she's better soon
    Hugs to everyone else who's feeling under the weather

    I have been soooo uber skint this last month. Haven't been able to pot much at all (if anything).


    So today while looking through my bag, I found 58p in change, not much I know, but in it goes.


    Hopefully start seriously potting again after payday next Tuesday.

  • Did not pot anything this month and next month also may be difficult.

    I started my ivf after a long wait of one year and what to make sure I try everything to make it work.

    So I am having acupuncture appointments once a week, prescription charges and cabs to and fro from hospital as I wanna be back to work without much delay and if I take public transport it will be two hours.

    Will start potting again from April.

    I did open an ns&i premium bond with £200 from my previous savings if I win anything I will pot that money :rotfl:

    Thank you Jakes mum, horrible when they are so poorly. My little one had a 2 hour nap this afternoon and just had another 30 minutes on the sofa. We're all having a foot spa atm so not all bad haha x

    It is indeed, hate seeing her so unwell and cant do anything but dose her up with calpol :( My girl just wouldn't sleep, I kept hoping she'd nod off as I knew it would do her the power of good but she didnt go until 8pm! Suddenly heard this little snore from daddys chair and looked over to see her flat out :(

    Ty hun, Glad your scan went well Meowhouse, fingers crossed for good news for you :)

    Oh Miss Lily really isn't well, I knew it was bad when I offered her a biscuit and she said no :eek: Miss Lily NEVER turns down a biscuit. She has kept trying to be sick all day but theres just nothing in her little belly to come up :(

    50p in the pot today, sent the jakester to the post office for me and that was the change, early night for me tonight I think as am totally shattered, really hoping for no midnight loo runs tonight, but after today I think it might be wishful thinking :(
