    It's nice to keep track, isn't it? When I was a poor student, I kept all the money I found on the street in a piggy bank, and once every 2 years it would be enough for a theatre ticket. I really enjoyed that free night out.


    1 banana and a handful of walnuts from Reception €0,40.

    Wombled £62 at Sainsbury's. Had £10 to double up to £20, then spent that £20 plus £2 cash on clothes in the sale that had a pre-sale value of £64.

    Have also changed energy supplier but need to work out that womble total first.

    Our Purchasing Department had put a (moving) box of goodies at Reception, the first of the Halloween/Christmas hampers they receive. These goodies were a bit weird, though: pineapple-curry-mango-peanut-almond bar (no chocolate), anyone? I have about €5 worth of goodies.
