Well I haven't bought much so haven't had much change! About 33p in mine today, though.
I don't often get change but find myself randomly going into my purse and dropping coins into it. No idea how much I have.
Not even tempted yet!

Woohoo for my roadkill fund - I have now found £1.02 in total - as our schools are on holiday this week - me and my OH took the kids for a walk around the school grounds and I found the grand total of 55p and my OH found 37p - I even did my own mexican wave when I found a 20p although it did have the date on!!:rotfl:
I took the kids to a very loud and busy playarea and put the change in my jeans pocket so when I came home and changed into my scruffs i emptied my pockets into my pot I have decided to do this every day and that way I can make at least one deposit every day!:xmastree:0 -

Hiya Hales,
Jess has gone AWOL on us, she hasn't been around for a while, I hope she's alright, I think I'll PM her to see if we can get a response

Me and OH really want to save for our house but with my ISA now only at 2% I am thinking i am needing to be putting all I can in it!
Not sure though as could use tin savings for when we have house...decisions decisions.
I only managed until Sept last year in this challenge but this would be a huge achievement quitting this early!
Hiya LLM,
You know we wont judge you if you open your pot and put it into your ISA, at least you'll get a little bit of interest on it
