    it would be really interesting at the end of the year to see how much we've all saved between us, what do you think?

    I don't think people realise how much actually builds up! I worked out that if I filled one of those large plastic Coke bottles (like they sell/used to sell in Wollies) It would hold (no joke) - approximately £10,000!!!!

    I've got one of them for Xmas 2004. Cashed it Xmas 2005, was only a quarter full, but had £200 in small change, which came in handy for shopping.

    Only prob is - I don't use cash all that much or it would be a lot fuller every Christmas.....

    Hello Ozzyfan,
    I've requested on the MSE Questions thread if it will be possible to put multiple columns in a single post or if I could create a spreadsheet and paste it. If so we will have the means to easily update, say on a monthly basis the total amounts saved by the whole club. Just waiting for some feedback... :D
    Regards, Michael.
    :)The £2 Coin Savers Club = £346.00 (£300.00 transferred to Savings a/c)

    that sounds brilliant :j

    maybe a link to a spreadsheet would work?

    sounds like a lot of work for you though, I hope its something you enjoy doing & won't turn into a full time job for you :eek:

    its really appreciated anyway, thanks :T
  • First Post. Hello to you all.

    Just about to start as soon as my first coin crosses my path. Inspired by my mother-in-law who has saved thousands. May take me some time to reach that level but fun all the same.
