    Found 2p under the bed (sigh), can't believe how well you lot are doing! :p Am trying not to spend anything, so not getting any change,and when I do there's often a blinkin charity box staring at me saying "put your change in me, I'm a good cause.............) and I keep falling for that one :mad:

    :rolleyes: I'm gonna be tough, I want that money for Xmas!

  • Hi All
    Have managed to save a whopping £2.10. I was so excited when I found 1p in the kids car seat (is that really sad?) Had to go school uniform spending too but managed to keep this to about 11.00 as opposed to the usual 40-50! Helped me to get some change though! Bonus!
