    Hurrah! :j 6 £2 coins in a week - I didn't realise I got so many! Best part was swapping a £1 coin for a £2 coin with OH - that's the kind of deal I like. I guess he is joining in the challenge by default!

    Have set up a separate coppers and 5p pot too - but this is going to be for summer when my nephew and niece come to visit and we go on day trips.

    I feel this challenge will be very addictive can't wait to see what I end up with.

  • nothing for me today, forgot to empty my wallet last night which means the change i had got spent on lunch, very naughty of me i know.

  • A couple of 50ps went in the pot this morning :)
  • So last night I added £1.80 to the terramundi, and took deliveryof two nice new ones for Christmas presents! One for my little sister who is terrible with money, and the other for my Mum, who is great, but every time she fills the change jar on the Welsh Dresser, one of my sisters will help themselves to anything over 5p!
