Your DH must think he's got holes in his pockets, the way he keeps "losing" change lol, you naughty girl you :rolleyes:
Have a good day hun
Just can't help myself Sparky, though he did comment on thinking he had less than he thought he had one morning. I said "oh dear you must have spent it I suppose." "Mmmm, suppose you're right." :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
Very often he'll leave me cash specifically to put in - and I do feel guilty then .....but not for long!!!Trouble is, my cover'll be blown come Christmas .....never thought of that til just a minute ago.
A couple of months to think up a plausible reason ...any help gratefully received!!!! Oooo 'eck I had had a great day til then
Keep safe Sparky.
Sounds like the huuuuuuuuge piggies may just win the day then mickey mouse. I must admit, it would break my heart to have to smash whatever I'd bought after saving so very hard all year. Not very MSE either!

Morning everyone,
Cycling to work this morning I ran over something that jingled, so I turned around and sure enough there was 3p in road change just waiting to be picked up, I have no shame so straight into my pocket it went, so I've got 3p more than I went out with this morning, a result I'd say.
Make sure you're ll well wrapped up this morning, that wind's deceiving. Have a great day everyoneSparky0107 - Sealed pot challenge member #002. Total for SPC3 £1,030.57 Total For SPC 4 £2247.00 Total for SPC 5 £2574.62 :T Total for SPC 6 £4552.91:T

Suu - I think you are right . I definately will go with the huuuuuuge piggie on my xmas list esp as he won't need to be smashed as he has a stopper. I will start off the challenge with the blue piggie I have as I don't want to upset him . I got a £2 coin from Mr T just now in my change so that has gone into Rasher (my blue piggie)£2 savers club 2025 #40
