Hi, may I join the Challenge?

I will be using an old Pringles can (probably a couple of years old since we don't eat them anymore!).

I have been using Pringles cans for coins since I was 6. My big brothers and I would seal the top properly, then melt a slit at the top, then decorate them.

This is the first tiem I will actually do it as a challenge, instead of just doing it out of habit. I won't set myself a target as we're not having much spare money these days, and we usually only have copper coins left.

Can't wait to start! :hello:

Welcome, Mellika.
All this talk of Pringles is making me hungry:D

Hi all,

Am I too late to join? Not sure of a target as we are just putting copper in one of the small sealed tins with the £50 note printed on it! It's about 6" high & 3" wide, any ideas?

Thank you

Hi & welcome
Hopefully, if her 'puter has stopped playing up, Sue_UU will be along some time later to give you your number, uniform and jack boots . This is the friendliest thread on MSE and we all support each other. No idea how much your tin will hold, but it will be a nice surprise on the 1st December when you count it . You'll also find it very addictive, once again welcome

Hi all
Its a while since my last post, hope everyone is doing well with the challenge. Found £1 in my coat pocket today so went straight in the pot.

Hi Sparky & thank you,

I'm trying to join in with a few challenges but not sure where to start with which is 'right or best' to do!

And yes very addictive!

Evening!

And a big "WELCOME" to our newbies ~ isn't it great that we're still getting new members? :j

As sparky rightly says, it's a lovely thread to join. And it's one of the most positive addictions that you can acquire ~ seriously, I start to panic if I don't have change for my tin :eek::rotfl:

Dropping £2.76 into savings tonight x

poorandindial you need to get to B & Q, get a tool belt, invest in a hammer and chisel, and then you'll find that glued down coins come off the ground very easily :rotfl: , that'll take the smiles off the kids faces

Where this is the little kids will probably mug me for the hammer and bludgeon me to death

(In the spirit of MSE I have a hammer and a flathead screwdriver as an improv - not sure work will be impressed if I take those in of a morning though)
