    Hi, Hope everyone has a nice weekend.
    I'm going to be painting the cupboard under the stairs and taking a load of junk to the tip! What an exciting prospect! But at least it keeps me out of the shops.

    Approx £7 added to my pot this week so far :) I'm proud to say this challenge may have had an effect on my son too. Last year I bought him one of those moneyboxes that you have to use a can opener to get your money out ~ within days that had been opened! At Christmas (when he saw that I'd signed up for this) he asked for another. At first I said no but I then got one for his xmas stocking. He has been putting quite a bit of odd change in and it does feel quite heavy already. It will be great to both open them at the same time and see what we've saved.
