I am a real sneak about this because there's a really easy way to cheat :rotfl: I signed up for www.spendingdiary.com (it's free) and account for every penny I spend as part of my other challenge. The by-product of that is that the website counts up all the odd pennies I put into Phil and the £2 coins I save, so other than what went in during December before I started my spending diary, will be showing as part of my running total. :cool: Phil got fed 29p today :T

Edited in: Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! I can feel all those virtual stones being thrown, you know! :rotfl:But I just KNOW that I won't be the only one watching where all the pennies are going.

Hi all,

We went to see PS I Love You which was soooooo sad!

Anyway, the terramundi had £2 plopped in it this morning, am thinking that i should start keeping track of what i put in there so it keeps me going!

Hope you're all having a good weekend?

If you think the film is sad read the book I think it is soooo much better. Took my daughter to see te film last week and she loved it too whereas I was waiting for bits to happen (as they do in the book) and it was changed!

Anyway back to the terramundi.....I started filling mine in Dec and didn't keep a log off how much was going in...now I add "money to pot..." in my spends diary. I don't want to add it all up because I want that surprise when I open it but because I can't see in the pot, having it written down I can see that it is filling up!

Don't sneak a look though Nyk.Think of the surprise you could have in December.Isn't it better just knowing that Phil is putting on weight
i know that if I knew what was in my pot I'd want to "borrow" and put back some weeks.This way is much better.Not that i'm putting loads in though LOL
