FAO £2 coin savers club

What are you planning on spending your £2 coins on?

I am going to try my absolute hardest not to open my tin until its full and then I think I will treat myself to a new pair of shoes and spend the rest on my debt (depending on how much debt I have left when I finally open the tin LOL!)

you?

    I was going to spend mine on a meal out - I've got £16 now and i don't want to part with them. I think i should bank them and put them in their own savings account.

    I'm saving mine so we can go to Alton Towers for the day at Easter (have a family of 4 for £50 leaflet). We wouldn't be able to go otherwise and I don't miss the money at all with it just being £2 here and there.

    I'm putting mine away into a savings account along with my Ebay profits and hopefully it will pay for our holiday in June to Cornwall including spending money ! It would be lovely not to have to touch the credit card for the holiday especially now that I'm trying to pay it off.
    There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word which means more to me than any other. That word is England.

  • I've decided that I'm going to use mine on holiday money!! Off to Reading festival this summer and off to Greece for a fortnight. Both have been paid for just need spending money now. A treat for me for being so saving savvy!!!

    then after that it can go on debts!
