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.Mortgage @ 2018 £225000
