    The deed is done :o

    I actually feel ok now as there were only 2 coins in each car ( must have been feeling really stingy :rolleyes: ) so nieces have gained £1 each. It's been torture knowing they were there so i wont make that mistake again... now have £44 :D

    Hello all,

    Am a debt free wannabe newbie!

    I have £6 worth of £2 coins tucked away.... can't wait to get some more!

    What do most people do? Wait til they reach a set amount before banking?
    Mine will be going against my Virgin Credit Card... can't wait to bring down the balance on that one and get it gone.
