    My hubby presented me with 7 shiny coins over the weekend, although he did want payment in return, I sneakily got out of it and have added them to my collection. So I'm up to a great sum of £142!

    I did have £20 in £2 coins that I was going to bank, but I had a small crisis and had to spend them :o However, I'm back up to £4 saved in my tin.

    They're all hidden away in MSE'rs terramundis and piggy banks! I release mine back into circulation on a regular basis though, I'd rather they were earning interest in the bank. I wonder what the cashier would say if I asked to withdraw my savings in 2 pound coins though...? :rotfl:
