    Is it cheating if i add in the coins i have had in a big bottle since like 2005?
    I don't think it counts as cheating. I put in some coins I found in the drawer of my desk - heaven knows how long they've been there. It's amazing what you find when you decide to have a clearout:D .

    I've added a bit of carpet kill into mine today... I stayed at my friend's last night and noticed 5p on the floor this morning under my bags... I'm presuming it was mine all along but it was a pleasent suprise and every little counts. I am hoping I will be able to add a lot more in after payday when I will be spending a little bit more.

    Oh dear - it's getting to me! :D The other night (or maybe last night, I can't remember) I had a dream that I found loads of money on the side of the road - loads of £1s, 50ps, etc, crazy!

    I've been looking for 'road kill' too but so far haven't seen any. I need more tips I think :D

    Yep I think this challenge is getting to me too and DH, This morning he was putting on his jacket, ready to start gardening, when digging into his pocket -one of many, he shouted Yesss!!!! I looked in wonder as he pulled out a MASSIVE 5p and shouted with equal excitement Yippee!!!! :j :j :j :j ...... Now at this point I can only say
    I hope the neighbours did not hear or see this little display of unimaginable over excitement:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: PS. It's in my pot!
