    Just googgled 2 pound coin, and has anyone heard the rumour that some are worth 15 pound?

    Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be true :(

    Another one for me last night! Got home from work to find one sitting on the bed side table that the Boyfriend had left me! Who said romance was dead?! :rotfl:

    The bill came for our holiday today... got 279.20 discount as a family member works for the company! So hopefully the £2.00s will mount up to cover a nice bit of spending money (+some bits and bobs also in Percy Pig)

    Got another one yesterday and have now saved £100!!!! im thinking of opening a new savings account, so i can get the money earning some interest rather than sitting in the pot at home. Dont want to add it to my normal savings account, in case i spend it, and my £2 savings are for my sons football trip (so that his sister and me can go!!!)

    i think my £2 coin obsession has gone too far...... (OH thinks so anyway!!) - i didn't have any change this morning for the bus, so walked into work, leaving 15 mins earlier, through all the nasty rain, because i refused to use a coin from the jar!!! and now i feel even more pleased that i saved myself the busfare!! :)

    Please add me t'club and i will update sig appropriately!!

    Have been saving these for a while as an unofficial £2 coin saver, and have found myself going to extreme measures to save em!!

    Mine go in a Terramundi, which is bigger than your average terramundi, so reckon it'll take at least £1k before its full! Am a long way off that thou! :rotfl:

    There is around £40 in there at moment.... i'll start updating from now on thou :D

    Wow another £4 so now £22. :j They are getting easier to find now. Must be because everyone is banking them. I feel like I am making a dent now in the Christmas 2006 bill.
