Like Beanie, and probably many other people, I've got loads of coat hangers to get rid of. Loathe to bin them and it appears CS's don't need them. I've got a cunning plan how I can get rid - when I go on holiday there are never enough coat hangers in the hotel wardrobe, so I'm going to put some in my suitcase and leave them at the hotel. That way not only will I be benefitting myself I'll be benefitting future guests too
To be honest in the past I've packed my clothes on the hangers then when I've got to the hotel I've just grabbed the hangers and put everything straight in the wardrobe, saves loads of time. I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)8 -
Today has been NSD 1 of March.
More February scores on the doors:
February NSD = 6
Total saved in VSP £49.04
August holiday £210
Monthly Saver £250
Emergency Fund £200
Total saved during February = £709.04
Not too shabby at all, really pleased with that.
Also achieved one of my February goals by getting back on my feet and starting to do some exercise. Had a few catch ups with friends and have some more planned for March.
Mr SA is researching what he wants for his birthday which isn't until the end of April!! So far today he's gone from a silver ring to a digital watch
I've got physio tomorrow afternoon - I'm returning my crutch, I no longer need it.

Really proud of myself, I’ve done 20 minutes on the treadmill, mixture of 1 minute walking, 1 minute jogging 👍 No pain from the leg at all. If anything it’s the other leg that’s uncomfortable, can still see that blooming screw sticking out😱I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6
