  • I've just counted up the 'pig' again. Up to £25.80 now. I don't think I'm getting very far really - although I do only have £50 week cash for food & petrol, so maybe its not so bad - it means I'm not going over budget if I have change eh!

    Hi,

    I started this at the beginning of September, and now I really resent having to occasionally hand over 2p or whatever in a shop or on the bus :)

    Up to £47.27 now though - which in 2 months isn't bad! :)
