    I've just had a look at the British Royal mint website and says

    "As at 31 December 2003 it is estimated that there were 232 million £2 coins in circulation"

    So there should be plenty to go round !

    How exactly can saving £2 be so exciting !! :j

    But it is, I find myself reading everyones signatures, so I can see how much they have saved. Now where did I leave those tranquilisers :rolleyes:

    Count me in (Deal or no Deal - It's a deal Noel)

    Other than the £2 club and the smarties 20p ideas, what other novelty saving ideas to people have ?
