Thank god I have been saving my coins in a terramundi otherwise I would dfefinately have spent them over the past two weeks as I have been absolutely broke. I did try at one point to see if I could get any of the coins out with a knife but without much luck. Anyway, most pleased that I never now as I would be gutted thinking I wasted some that I didn't need to, as I still managed to live without them even tho we did have to make meals out of the leftovers in the cupboard, fridge and freezer...lol0

Yes I am one of the nutters who joined - I already had started to save in my Terramundi pot before this and love to save in it for a rainy day - some of us are not able just to go and buy what we want to when we want to and its better and you appreciate it a lot more to save up for something specific - some are saving for foreign holidays - some as you see will pay off mortgage/credit cards with their savings - its better to save £40 to pay off a debt than pay in £2.00 each time - stop moaning and if you dont like the £2.00 money saving club - just don't read it or just don't go there - we (the rest of the nutters!) love it
Hope you have plenty of £20 notes in your purse as I don'tSaving in my terramundi pot £2, £1 and 50p just for me! :j0 -

You might want to start a signature, then GreenFingers can keep track of your savings on his spreadsheet - its easier for him to do it this way, I think.
To create a signature, go to User CP in the pink bar above and go to Edit/Create Signature and off you go!
