The Smoosh Bottle...........
[Deleted User]
Posts: 0 Newbie
Anyone else have one of these at home for all the loose change or smoosh as we call it?
We had quite a bit in various different tins & jars so I picked up one of those huge plastic coke bottle banks & the aim is to keep adding the smoosh from our purse & wallet until its full to the brim.
I'm gonna start getting some money bags stocked up from the bank in preparation of cashing it in(bit premature I know but I like to plan ahead
).
Our aim for the smoosh is..........well we don't actually have one :rotfl: Will wait until we cash it in then decide what to use it for.

So we cleared all the £0.01's, £0.02's, £0.05's £0.10's £0.20's into the jar & it's covered the bottom - just!
I keep the £0.50's £1.00's £ £2.00's in separate banks.
This is gonna take a while I think!

I have a money box and I am throwing all loose change in so far this year. One day I am gonna be rich.
Problem is when I am broke I raid it occasionally - maybe that's why I am not rich. I promise I will not raid it this year!Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
I did the same when it was in the tins last year, hoping to not raid it at all this year too.

from your signature,
Goal Weight by August 2017 0lbs/84lbs
is that the weight you want to get to or the weight you hope to lose?

That's the total amount of weight I will lose.
