Loose Change Challenge!

Posts: 5,988 Forumite
Every Friday put all your loose change from your purse/pockets/etc into a pot to save up and see how much you have at the end of the month!
I am saving loose change in 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p,and 50p's. You can follow me or you can do it your own way
I will add change to my pot now (I already have some in there) and I will put in more on Friday if I have any.
Ok I am now putting in: 31p!
Anyone want to join in?

I will join in on this. I tend to empty most of the change out of my purse each morning at 10am for the make a payment a day challenge, but could start a tin at home. I can then empty purse on Sunday of all I have collected over weekend ie any nights out etc, and any cash I find round the house at the weekend. Then at end of month can make an extra payment.MAY NSD's

I'll count up how much I've got when I get home tonight and add it to my siggy. I know this is sad, but I got very excited yesterday when I found 2 x 20p pieces at the bottom of my bag!! Unfortunately my OH was playing snooker last night and needed them for the lights meter!!Debt free and Keeping on Track0
