The £2.00 Coin Savers Club

kitasmum

Banked £100 today. Went to the shop afterwards and got another one.
I got a terramundi(?), so must remember to update while filling it up. If I forget to count a few, it will be a nice suprise when I finally open it up.

I couldn't wait anymore! Counted my £2 yesterday that I've been saving in a tin since March.

The grand total is £170 :j

So I'm off to bank it today along with £40 in 50p

Quite a few Sainsburys and Asdas have change converters in their entrance foyers, so if you can't be bothered to count it all up and separate each denomination, you can just throw it all in there and you can either change it into (money) notes, or vouchers for the store or you can donate it to charity. Hope this helps someone!

but remember that they do charge about 7% for the service whereas a bank will change it into bigger coins or notes for free!!

Managed to get another 2 in Tescos yesterday!!!! Just bagged up some of it to bank later on today, might as well earn some interest rather than leaving them in my jar!!!!

I've started saving £2 coins for a little while now, but didn't tell anyone on the board!
Feel well cheeky, so this is me admitting my dirty secret!

Where are you all banking your £2 coins? Which banks pay good interest?

'Purchased' two more off of my work colleague. Took them all out of the terramundi (took ages, using a knife) just so I could count them all up and I have about £98 in £2 coins now.
