Sorry I didn't answer the emails, I have 8 email addy's. I'm still somewhat on board. The not buying coffee is going well, the not smoking, well, not so well, the not doing or buying from the Chipboard went completely bust. The football looks to be about half full. Bear in mind that I'm on SSDI so I have no other income other than change I get in spending, and most of my spending is done by cheque card. My football, as I mentioned is just change, no bills. I tried bills, but somebody spent them...Oh wait, that was me .

I do supplement my bank by cashing in cans and bottles. I have a deal with the Ushers/Cleaners at my old Theatre.

I'm not planning on making a cursory count till at least January. In shaking it around I see more silver than copper.

My Football was never meant to be my only means of savings, I have Ingdirect for that, but merely an experiment in will-power. Which, I failed!

I plan on using these funds on a nice purchase from the Bourse floor or a good bid in the Memorial Auction!
