    Another 15p in the chairs tonight. Then went out for a walk and found a 20p outside a block of shops.

    My last night in the hotel tonight, I am going to miss it!
    I bet you will. I would be walking around like a Cheshire cat if I was you. So pleased for you.

    Thanks, it really has been a great month. Even without including the £10 I would still have smashed any prvious months total.

    Plus I have done a shed load of over time this month, so March's payday will be a good one and should get me below the half way mark of my debt total.

    Boborella well done on your £5 note find. Last year I found a £20 note a £10 note and 3 or 4 £5 notes. I am hoping to replicate these finds this year. To make up for The money I had stolen. On Saturday, Whilst I was in Lisbon, Portugal I had my purse stolen from my handbag - I had 150 euros taken and £23 in cash. It was on the first evening. We hadn't realised that there was a safe in our room. My hubby, bless him,shared his spending money with me ( we always take joint money for meals and drinks etc plus our own for buying any treats that we want). Luckily he had our joint money. He said that I was to think of it as we have both 75euros each taken. I couldn't ask for a more lovely husband.

    Sorry to hear this, Gem Gem - good luck, I hope universal karma swings back round to bring you something good.

    Just 1p at the petrol station today. Looks like I'm back to a normal level of roadkill now!

    Another 20pin the station car park on Friday, takes me to YTD: £2.91 +26p womble.


    I also went into Waterstones and The Works and added hubby's profligate purchases onto my points cards, but he lives with me so not a womble.

    Have just counted my roadkill pot £9.65 for Jan and Feb. Feb was a better month for me.
    Good luck everyone for March, may your finds be plentiful.
