Ive had friends when we were going to a cashpoint would then go further down the road as "That one does'nt charge' Im like , I need my money now and don't mind paying for the privilege! Ive noticed that some people also do this regarding other things saying 'Lets go to the shops down the road as the item is slightly cheaper" WHAT? Im sorry but isn't your lifes time more important then saving a couple of pennies? Have this extensive penny pinching ever made any one a millionaire? Are you a perpetrator of this or do you agree that sometimes you need to spend slightly more and gain some extra life time?

Salla, you are funny - that made me smile ☺
It's a pleasure Den xx
I must be lucky, because i work in a city centre, and all the ATM's are charge-free to extract money.

I was miffed at Glastonbury to find my phone ran out of credit, and i had to call about an interview i was doing, so needed to top-up. I had to walk to the Avalon stage to find a cash machine that did top-ups, and there was a bank of nine, with massive queue. Great - stand in the sweltering heat for twenty minutes ... then i saw a mobile caravan with just a 'top up machine' which was empty - result!

I would pay to use a CP if i needed to, but I'd draw £200 to make the feee justifiable.
(You can see from my latest avatar that I look after myself and keep myself young and fit....) ;-)
The nearest ATM to my house charges £1.50 for withdrawals so I actually get in the car and drive to the nearest free one. It's not the cost it's the principal.
I always reuse the tea bags. Waste not, want not.
We recycle toilet paper.
Sandyroe I will bring my own teabag then as I like a decent cup of tea then you can use mine more than once.That will save a bit for you.
A succesful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A succesful woman is one who can find such a man.
The guests get the reused tea bags. I like Twinings Everyday. It needs to be nice + strong, no sugar, and a dash of skimmed milk.
Just re-read my earlier post. What I meant to say was "We use toilet paper made from recycled paper"
so old_geezer are you implying that the banks that charge to withdraw yr money are in effect thieves? as i would
