  • Well I haven't updated my total for 4 months...busy, holidays etc (but have still been saving) so when I counted today I discovered that my total had increased by £104 ie £26 per month!!! I would not really have believed it possible.
    I also got a couple with designs I didn't recognise and so looked up and discovered the were of Brunel; I then discovered there are words around the edge which despite having so many had never noticed!!! Now I have a couple of people at work looking out and collecting the different ones. Try it and see, I have all in everyday use except the one commemerating the Manchester Commonwealth games, what about you? look and see it's fascinating and I know so much more about the £2 coin :laugh:

  • Have only just started using this site again and thought I'd join in with the £2 savers. Got a £2 coin in change today so seemed a good day to start!

    Come on Jules you've got some catching up to do!! (We started saving on the same day)


    I've been pretty slack with the £2 coins over the summer holidays as I wouldn't take my 3 kids shopping unless absolutely necessary ;) I'm back to normal with a mission now lol

    Wooohooo! Another little beauty! I'm now up to £70. I'm going to try and get to the bank so that I can bump my car total up a little.
