I think they cost about £20!
I might have a look on ebay for something as 7% is a lot of money.
I have gone part time from work to look after my son one day a week so I now have time to do stuff like bagging money and taking it to the bank etc.
I wish someone would 'pay' me 7% for counting out my money!!!!;)0 -

I started saving £2 coins years ago......someone told me that the ones where the queen is wearing a necklace are worth much more than £2 !!!!.......anyway, I find I can't spend them now just in case! anyone enlighten me?
I used to save 20p pieces(£5's worth fits exactly into an old film container) I have saved hundreds over the years........the thing is........... I buy treats, saying it will come out of this saved money, but i can't actually bring myself to use the coins, and pay myself back........so I have lots of coins, lots of traets, and not much money in my purse........praps I need counselling!0
