    Yeah it was who I thought. Turned out he had been taking pounds coins out of my boyfriends pot and leaving 1p coins in it's place. He's got a fair bit of money out of us I reckon.

    That's awful. At least you can now move forward. I think it is easier to process in your head when you know the truth rather than working on assumptions. Doesn't make it any easier though. I have never understood theft. Hugs xx

    That's really sad hickles. If it was me I'd make a point of constantly mentioning it to shame the person. They should feel ashamed. Might stop them from doing it again.

    I potted £1.45 over the course of the last few days. Really getting good at committing some change every now and again.

    £5 went in the tin yesterday as I finally sorted out taking some money out of paypal from sales, DS and DD counted their tins as DS has gone to nannys, and DD will be spending a few days there when we go pick him up.
    DS had £28.06 and DD had £33.36 :D

    Also potted 2 x £2 coins and some shrapnel, so both tins now feeling very heavy :j :j

    Had a bit of a bargain today, DD really wants to buy the lone ranger set for her disney infinity (which ive had hidden upstairs for xmas for the last 3 months :mad: :eek:) so was having a look online for things to convince her she'd rather have . . . found that Disney Infinity 2.0 is coming out next month at £52 :eek: BUT Mr T have included it in thier double up deal, I have £18.50 in vouchers so have got it pre-ordered for £15 :j :j so will put that away for christmas and she can buy the lone ranger set off me :D plus am going to see if my mum has any vouchers as the figures are also in the double up so would cost me £6.25 each if shes got any I can buy off her (we only use them for shopping anyway!)

    Glad you found your thief hickles, some people have no shame unfortunately and only care about their own needs :(
