    Was given £2 coin today in change and remembered seeing this club in sigs so decided to search you out!

    Now I am here and a proud member, just need to figure out my signature!

    Welcome Bigliz :hello:

    I'm almost back to square one with the £2 coin saving. I've invested in a winter coat as I've not had one for the last few years (I'm hoping this one will last for at least 5 years, classic-cut in black). I've used my £2 coins plus the money I got back from Anglian Water after moving house to buy it.

    I got another £2 coin today, so I'm starting off again with £6. I don't think buying a coat counts as banking, does it? :rolleyes:

    Hello can I join too please?

    My total is £4 already :D I searched my purse and dh pockets but couldn't find any and then remembered when I counted my coins in my morgage piggy, which should only have silvers but had a suspiciously large amount of gold in it, that there was 2 in there so I will start with those :rotfl:

    I have a golliwog moneybox coming soon so I will save the £2 in there.

    Added another few today, dying to know what is in there but must resist the temptation.

    Have bought another sealed tin (but much much bigger) for the next lot :)
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
