  • Haven't been on for a while. DH used most of mine when I was in hospital earlier on this year but I have managed to start another small collection. Mind you, everyone I speak to also seems to collect them so probably explains why I cant seem to find them that often!

    Hi, is it too late to ask to join?? And im going to sound really simple here but how often do you feed the fund as it were ie do you put in as often as you like or do you put in weekly?? or is it really up to you...

    i have 4 terrimundi jars that were put away untill a time i could think of to use them and now i have decided 3 will be for the kids birthdays (started off on their birthdays this year for next) and me and my oh are planning on getting married so that will be the 4th pot x

    I guess everyone's different, valkirn, but I put every £2 coin I get into my tin. I haven't paid any into the bank yet - I think some people pay in every £x they get (maybe £50 or £100).

    If you want to save other coins as well in your terramundis that'd certainly help the totals build faster! I think the others are right - there's so many people collecting £2 coins that they're geting rarer...

    Just do whatever suits you :T
  • :) I got £20 out of the bank this afternoon to pay for coffee with a friend and a few groceries. From that I got 5 of the little beauties in change! LOL
    I shall have to get money from the bank again quicker than I thought.
    Because it's fun to have money!
