nsd for me too
only got 1 £2 coin so far Boiler pot £30.92/£10000 -
I have a few now. I tend to keep 3 or 4 in the little zipped off compartment of my purse for 'emergencies' (not enough cash for the shopping!). The rest I siphon off into a little wooden set of drawers with a carved chicken on the top. DH discovered my secret stash in the pretty tea set on the dresser last year so hopefully these will be safe!
BTW, also have a weird fascination for collecting the new 20p's - so shiny and cute...Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed.
If you quote me, don't forget the capital 'M'

I've finally found a £2 coin - unfortunately we are still snowed in so haven't been able to get out and about to find anymore. However, whilst gutting the bedroom this morning I've finally found one!0 -
Grrrr had to break my NSD today to buy toilet rolls. We walked and I bought the children a little choccy bar too. It came to £3-09 and I didn't have any copper on me, so I missed out on a potential £2. Gutted :-(Starting again and working towards our new df life!A very proud forces wife0

Woohoo! New shiny 2010 thread - thanks Buffy! Good luck with paying off your loan.
So, my first £2 of the new year is now in my pot, I am aiming for £150 this year as I already have something in mind to spend it on! Fingers crossed.0
