    Hi Sarah,

    I am by no means an expert as I have the grand total of.................................................£6 in £2 coins! :rotfl: However, if I was in your shoes I would bank them now - I know all your debt is at 0% at the moment but I always loved watching my debt figures going down!

    Whatever you choose, congratulations on getting to £40 again!

    Had a great day for £2 coins -3!!! (but bad day for purse-empty!!)- tin is getting a real good jingly sound now so I am hoping there's oodles in there!! I now can't believe I have decided to wait till I give them to hubby for chrimbo to know how much is in there!!! As my pot is not really sealed I wonder if I will crack and count them before then!!! NO- I must resist the lure of 'my pretties'.

    Happy hunting to you all

    ps to SarahNeedle1872- you are very brave to even consider banking them- I'm getting strangely attached to them and might end up never giving them up- to be discovered in years to come with millions (I wish) stashed away everywhere in pots, evermore to be known as the mad coin collecting bint of Nottingham!!! I may even take to naming 'my pretties' as they come in and make them all little personalised name stickers (going a tad too far??? well, cheaper than cats and no litter tray- hurrah!!)
  • :rotfl: Sheba, you are quite mad! But in a good way :D

    2 more for me today too. I bought 2 cups of tea for 60 p today and got four 1 pound coins in the change. As soon as that happens I'm on the hunt to swap them for £2 ones and sure enough I soon had them swapped. It feels like cheating but I'm addicted....

    Arthur the pig has about £100 in there now from a January start

  • I am jinxed - before joining this thread, I always got £2 coins in my change. People just don't like giving them to me now. I think it's a conspiracy...
