    Yes. It is. Plain and simple. But for those of us who are watching the pennies, a £2 coin here and there is easy. Just remove from wallet/purse/pocket and put in moneybox. That's it. Then, when you want a treat, you don't have to find the money from somewhere else, or have to omit to buy food just to have the money for it. It's quick and easy, and as you can see from the threads on here, it can be very rewarding!

    I find actual cash quite slippy _pale_

    I try to use cards as much as possible because any cash I have to have seems to wend its way off somewhere and I never have a proper record of it.

    So for me - saving out any £2 coins I get means I pin some of this dangerous excess down :grinheart
