    Hi,

    I've been following this thread and although I am not an official member of the team I have been putting change in my sealed tin (my mum bought it for me for Christmas). I kicked the flipping thing when I was making my bed the other day *ouch* it felt like a lot of cash, lol.

    Good Afternoon, everyone!
    What a beautiful day!
    You know those clothes I put on ebay last week - well, I made £105.00!!!
    Going hunting now for some more stuff to put on. :j
    Also took my bagged-up coppers to the bank and they gave me £7 in proper money which went in the pot, so it's getting quite heavy.

  • Hi All,

    Not doing too badly so far, ive managed to put something in every other day.

    The only problem is that I have now started not spending cash, i think thats kind of the point for me, but rather than count out my change and ask for another 5p from hubby for the drinks i broke into a £5 thinking that all the change can go in my pot today.

    Downside was it went on bus fair, lol.

    Have put in all that i have left which is £1.26.

    I am going to try not to spend anything else until Wendesday now, (im going to try and quit the evil cigarettes too so thats an extra £20 a week in my bank in theory)

    Puzzled
