£2.50 potted yesterday - change from visiting the greengrocers instead of the supermarket

DH came home from pub last night totally sozzled! gave me the £5 I asked him to take out the bank for me to square up what I owed (was supposed to be £10 but somehow £5 of it miraculously went missing with his pub money . . . he has no idea how ) and handed me £1.40 odd in change for my tin.

Did a bit of crimbo shopping today, dear lord! my son is expensive! his list consists of
1) Vans
2) Vans Tops
3) Chinos (not cheap tesco ones mum, good ones)
4) An overpriced Man U top
5) Fifa 15
Oh and if I feel inclined, some Superdry stuff :eek:

And that doesnt even incorporate his main present :eek: though to be fair, they never get any say in the big christmas present, that is strictly down to me and DH to decide on and is always a complete surprise

Obviously bank of mum and dad is never ending in the teenage world :rotfl:

Hey still potting away. I can't lift one of my tins which will be interesting in 7 weeks.

Baby due March. Am practising telling people and taking deep breaths. Not really happy about it and have a terrible reaction to congratulations. Sounds terrible doesn't it. I'll get there. Hope everyone is ok

Ahh don't worry hickles, its not terrible at all, not everyone is 'yay! a baby in my life!', I had our DS at 22 and believe me he was not planned in the slightest, so not really a 'congratulations! baby, more a 'oh dear' baby It was hardest telling my dad (made mum do it in the end ) but despite all my moaning, he is my angel and I would not change my 'mistake' for all the money in the world. As soon as I held that tiny person in my arms, I really can't describe how much love I had for him, no-one but another mum can get just how fierce it is.

£1 in the tin that wasn't needed for car parking after all

Welcome to all the newbies and well done eveyone on all our potting! Lets make Sue proud!

Jakes-Mum, Superdry has an eBay store, so you might be able to find some bargains on there x

32b3, you may just have become my most very favourite person in the whole wide world! :kisses3: You've actually cheered me right up after ive just found out those mods over at HUKD have suspended my account again (3 days! and was 1 day 5 days ago) for again somehow infringing their da*n selling rules! I've only just started trying on there 2 weeks ago, I did read their extremely long rule list (which is more stringent than fleabay!!!) but nope, again, I have tried to log in to receive a 'you seem to have infringed our selling regulations, so your account has been suspended for (red text) 3 DAYS. :mad: Sent them an email this time asking what I have done that is so bad, a three day suspension is required, for gawds sake, my son didn't even get that for having a meltdown in school and calling his teacher a a**hole!

Ohhhh must tell you all about DH.....
When he started his diet he was in 42's so hes really chuffed that 36's are too big (but he's not quite in 34's yet) He's run off down the pub to show off his new slimmer self

Sorry about your ban but congrats to your DH for all the weight loss :dance:


Ten pence roadkill today in the pot :T


Hope you all have a marvellous Monday

Evening £6.40 potted for me over the last two days by selling on local facebook pages, there will be another £5 going in this week as Iv sold another item and it is being picked up on wednesday. I have to be really careful when picking up my pot now, (ceramic) as it is quite heavy, very satisfying when you hear the coins hardly drop when you pop them in cos its getting full !!
