    Evening everyone,

    I haven't counted up my savings yet as it's mostly coming in from clothing sales etc. I haven't tried everything on yet so i dont know whats being kept and whats being returned.

    regards

    The Happy Cash jar is also the £2 coin jar - so £4 was added today. I have found that when I have one £2 coin I will always get another one because they don't like being alone.

    I paid for my green waste collection today too and saved myself £2 in the process so that money has been chucked in the jar too.

    I need to add £27 to the jar too as I made some savings at a closing down sale - a beautiful polo neck jumper reduced from £19.50 to £15, a purple handbag reduced from £32.50 down to £20.00 and a pair of earrings that are a bit blingy (lots of sparkle) reduced from £20 down to £10.

    I am saving up for a garden table and chair set.

    Thank you :) going to have a good look through tonight I am really sorry I have not thanked you before it's because I have only just seen the post. I am loving this idea of Happy Money if you don't mind think I may steal that name to?

    Coupon savings made today = £5.50:j
    I have used my Boots coupon that was posted to me for 50 FREE 6x5 photo prints. I have chosen some photo's of family over christmas.
    The price deducted for the 50 prints was £5.50. I had to pay 99p for p&p.
    Chuffed with this freebie saving less p&p.:T
    The secret to success is making very small, yet constant changes.:)

    I will look at my receipts from shopping today.

    I have a 12p off a litre of fuel so will have to remember to use that.
