  • I was going to go to bed but husband appears to be glued to the sofa so will stick around for a while!

    Im sat next to a tin of quality street with no orange or strawberry creams left (my faves!), with a cup of tea next to me and some random jackie chan film on the tv....im not a fan! =D

    What will you do with the money you save in your pot/pig/tin/terramundi?
    Back and ready to save some money! :D
