So last year, she was able to buy a painting that she wanted, which was a nice feeling. This year, mum looked but nothing took her fancy, so mum sealed up the money. A couple of weeks ago, when the family visited mum vacuum went up in a puff of smoke and broke down. Mum has always wanted a Dyson, and this one was on special this week, so mum used her $5 jar money to pay for it.
I hope they will be very happy together.

Dyson's are supposed to be very good vacuums, Poppy. Be brave. I don't THINK it will suck you in.
ReplyDeletePoppy, I do not like your human's $5 jar choice at all!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy couldn't she use that $5 jar to buy something extra-special for you???
ReplyDeleteI dont like your mums buy but mum does.. I hate the sucky thing and have never got used to it in all these years.. Hugs GJ xx
ReplyDeleteMommy has one like that and we loathe it!! It REALLY sucks. In a good way, says Mommy.
ReplyDeleteFui and I have a love-hate relationship with the Dyson. We hate that it is so loud and monsterlike. We love that it works really quickly so it's only on for a little bit of time. Lishy just hates it. He spits at it, even when it's off. MOL!
ReplyDeleteThe $5 jar sounds like a very good idea.
I ♥ my Dyson. I've sure given her a run for the money in the past 6 years or so!
ReplyDeleteI also ♥ the $5 jar idea! hmmm...
Have a lovely day, ladies!
Love the $5 jar idea. I need to put that to practice!
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted a Dyson but they are so pricey, good job!
(Poppy, we suggest you find a corner far, far away when this thing is making noise, MOL)

I like the $5 jar! I need to start that here!
ReplyDeletePoppy, you are very brave to get so close to the evil sucky machine. That is a good idea for your mum to save her $5.
ReplyDelete::shudders:: We have heard tales about evil Dysons! Be careful pretty Poppy. Congrats to the Mom on her purchase.
ReplyDeleteThat is a nice way to save, mum throws her extra change in a jar. Then takes it to the bank for counting.
ReplyDeleteWe love the $5 jar idea. Our mom needs to try that.
ReplyDeleteHi Poppy Q! Long time no commenting (but I've been lurking!)
ReplyDeleteI have a Dyson and wish I would have gotten the upright. My tiny little house is just too small for dragging around the canister but it does the sucky thing really well.
I also started saving every $5 I got in April and had $125 saved when I went on a mini trip to visit family in August. I came home with $5 left from my stack and that was the seed money for my next savings stretch. It's fun to count it up every once in a while. Much quicker then saving change but I do that too!
Hope all is well and stay away from Mr. Dyson!
Hugs, Christine and Sweet Pea, Oliver, Lisa, Figaro, Chloe, Toby and newcomer Possum!
