*****UK Spending Money Game No1*******

[Wills Mom]

Thank you And I've no idea haha I have an interview for an apprenticship at the Leeds Dental Institute and if I get it they have set holiday dates that I would have to go during but I won't know when they are until the interview

Oh best of luck with the interview!!

DH opened his Christmas savings tin and added about €25 in change! Very generous of him - I'll buy him something nice for Christmas

 

[Wills Mom]

Ok so I opened my main tin today. This tin is for pre-trip expenses so I ordered my new Boba carrier, will renew my passport and order a new one for DS, sending our dog to the vet to get his annual booster and kennel cough vaccines. There was €400 on the nose in the tin so theres enough to cover those things. Now I just have to save for the dogs trip to the kennels, our ESTAs, and a few small bits and pieces so the main things are sorted! DH and i will have a joint tin after Christmas.

DH nearly gave away a £2 coin until he realised the error, snatched that out of his hand and added another 2 that I had so £6 in the tin.

Had friends over at the weekend and they treated us to a takeaway so another £15 went in too

£28 in the tin !! took some jewelery that my auntie makes to school xmas fair and sold loads so she gave me some commission

Hows everyone doing? I am planning on opening my tins after christmas as i am going to get my dollars then, ready for my feb trip I have emptied out my purse after some last minute shopping and added £4.70

I will be starting on a new tin in March to save for a future holiday as thinking about Disneyland next time.

 

[Wills Mom]

Well at the moment I am tin-less! New tin being started after Christmas and we will have 4 months of solid saving

I've not been thinking too much about this over Christmas and New Year, now I need to get back on track!

 

[paul_toria96]

Not been on for a while sorry but today I found some change in a coat and put an extra £20 I got for Christmas in there (don't get much for Christmas these days )

Going to really start saving again, bought my friends a disney tin for Christmas as they are coming with us and loved the idea - they aren't on here - don't know what they are missing lol

Christmas present off the parents = $50 bill!

I now have £235 in THE JAR.

$150 from last time.

150 Bulgarian Lev to change to $$$.

I just received £50 compensation from my bank, for a banking error and £125 from my FIL, so that's going in there.
