    I got one at last today after going for a while without one but the only reason I got one is I had to pay cash in Morrisons as I've had to cancel my debit card due to it being cloned :mad:
    There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word which means more to me than any other. That word is England.

    I have been waiting patiently for another £2 coin to arrive this week, and finally cracked in the Post Office, and asked if I could have one in the change!

    The very nice man said I could have several if I liked, but I could only afford the one.

    Very pleased to make it to £20 :j

    Now I need to find something to keep them in, and decide what I would like to save for. :D

    Thought I would start a new thread for £2.00 Coin Savers….. a sort of club... lol :p

    My £2.00 Coin Piggy Bank (see wonderful picture below – hee hee) was starting to get really, really heavy, :D so I emptied it out and a massive 44 coins are in there saved since last December. I popped into the bank this afternoon and put £50.00 of it into the savings account – hooray.

    The balance of 19 coins can stay in there until there’s another £50.00 to bank.

    How many £2.00 Coins have you saved….. :)

    finally got another one today £22 now.
  • I haven't managed to find any today, they really are becoming scarce! But I just checked on the Royal Mint website and there are approximately 269million £2 coins in circulation, so we've still got a way to go before we get them all!
