    How much did your terramundi weigh with them in? I'd be interested to know as I haven't got a clue how much is in mine!!

    it weighed a bit, but there was still room left in it for another £150-200 i reckon?!?!

    the tweezers thing is not as hard as you reckon!!!

    is your terramundi heavy then? plus the tweezer way saves on buying another one!!!!

    another one today as well!!!

    I've got a dilemma!! I asked for £30 cashback in Tesco's and they only had a £10 note and gave me the rest in £2's!! Do I pay in £20 of £2 coins, or do I go to the bank and ask them to change the coins to notes?!! My friend asked if I could lend her a couple of quid for the carpark today and I said no and laughed showing her the inside of my heavy purse!! My £2's are precious!

    If that was me I would HAVE to add it to the pot - as far as I'm concerned if I get any, I will not spend them! And if I see OH get one in his change, he isn't allowed to spend it either! :rotfl:

    I took some loose change to the Coinstar machine in Sainsbury's today - £9.52 - and when I took the voucher to the kiosk to cash it, she gave me 2 £2 coins :D

    Just a measley 1 to add to the pot.
    There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word which means more to me than any other. That word is England.
