    Chucked a few small coins in after a shopping trip to Manchester with the male, he shopped I watched - I think he was impressed!

    My sealed pot/s have been clunktastic of late, after I went home for a week/got gifts/went out several times :D Got a fantastic ATM money bank for Christmas, so have started keeping my £2 coins for treats/nights out with the beloved GF! It comes complete with money targets, noises and lights, so the big kid in me is very satisfied.

    50p and lower will still be going into the sealed jar proper, but I'd feel bad if I didn't put my cool new Christmas gift to use.

    I'm starting to think that my DFW status is taking over my flat - the GF got me the aforementioned savings bank and a mug that says 'I :heart2: spreadsheets!' Now what is she trying to imply? :rotfl:

    Hi all :)
    Just bought another 2 tins from BHS, now half price at £1.50 each.
    Tin 1 will be for £2 coins, Tin 2 for £1 coins and the third one for everthing else. I've also decided what each tin will be used for (well more or less). Savings Club at work also starts again in a few week, not sure How much I'll be putting away this year though..
