    We look forward to having you with us too mm. I'm sure our OH's will soon be in need of counselling for the empty pocket syndrome, poor fellars. :rotfl:I'll soon have to come clean with mine I'm sure..... in 18 days!!!!!:eek:

    Thanks for that oopalah, I think! :o

    Never mind mcjordi, we'll share ours with you - the amounts saved knowledge I mean

    Well done with that black china pig HWGA (almost didn't see you then), now ask him for a weekly allowance to fill it!!!:rotfl: No road finds here either, I blame it on the recession. :rolleyes:

    I see you've been on sparky, I really do feel sad for you only being able to "thank" folk and not post. Please kick that darned computer, or get stunty too!!!

    literally haven't been on this thread since Jan, but have been saving and have had to open my pot ....*drumroll*

    I had a grand total of £346.59p !!!!!! Well above my expectations.

    If my OH has given me money back I lent him then I've put it in the pot to save spending it (if its in the purse it will get spent but thats prob only £50 worth!) I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO pleased! I thought I had about £120 in there, so was really suprised :D I did put notes in when I had them :D

    Thanks to the OP :D

    A marvellous amount jamtart6!!! :T What a difference from what you thought you had!! I'm really hoping I won't be disappointed on opening up. Have got notes in mine too. It certainly was a great idea by Mumzy in the first place. :T Hope you'll be joining us again on the 2nd Dec! Well done on such a wonderful amount!:j

    Morning Everyone,
    Hope you're all having a good day, 9p in road change for me yesterday, I do love watching the kids throwing their change away.
    My 'puter at home doesn't have any office programmes on it, so I'm wondering if that is the cause of not being able to post on here?

    Catch you all later before I go home, stay safe & keep saving

  • Hi guys! Like Jamtart I haven't been here since joining either (though I've popped in a couple of times to check on you!)

    I raided my jar for spending money for our (clubcard deals funded!) holiday in France this September - I was thrilled to have £250! Then I glued the lid back on and I have around about £90 in it again - woo hoo! Not sure what to spend it on, want to make sure it goes on something particular (like the hol) rather than just getting swallowed...
