    Hi to in-trouble, rog2 and Sheralee :wave:

    I've done abysmally with collecting 20p's lately, I'd had about £1 worth since I last posted on this thread.

    I've got to up my game now though as I'm saving for me and boyfriend to move into our own place in the spring (currently living with a relative, so can't wait to move!) with my salary, so we're now saving 20p and £2 coins towards our wedding in 2008.
  • hi counted all my change today, no 20p though but i think i will start saving them after the new year, quite impressed on what my jar had though.

    We have the pleasure of counting our coin jars this week-end, too - but I don't think it will be a lot - Last time we had over £100 in 5p coins, but that bottle is only about 10% full and I may leave it this time.
    Kept all my 20p coins for parking - £1.20 so far this week, and used 60p, so have surplus of 60p but this will probably be used this afternoon.
    I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.
