    Evening all!

    Just counted up all my loose change and have got a tenner to pot! It's wonderful what a few (ie.3) £2 coins can do to a handful of change!!

    Happy evening.

    I had a £1 washing machine find....oh my life I was so excited!! :D :dance:

    DD went to her friends after school yesterday and so DH and I had chicken (from the fridge) with chips from the chippy. Bit naughty I know, but a nice treat. However, instead of buying a large portion I bought a medium and potted the 50p I saved by not being a piggy lol! ;)

    Good golly I was tempted to hack into my jar today. Paid off credit card, paid next years car insurance in full, put £300 away as tax and MOT due in June and that's my wages spent..... But I didn't I worked out a catch up plan for the 12K challenge and put in the last of last months money into my pot :)


    I'll be fine.


    Just joined Bubblews to make extra money to pay off car finance, anyone use it?
