newbie here.
could I join pls...
A bit late in the yr but having emptied our change pot had found two £2 coins and as I don't get them often had kept them in a spare cup. So am ready to go>>

Hello I33na. It's never too late to start saving - they add up quite quickly which is very rewarding.

Yeah, at last, another two little gold beauties. If only I could just find a few more though.

Thanks for the welcome...
I said I don't get them too often and today for my change of £4 I got one:j. I asked if the other coins could be changed for another if the SA had any and she did!! so got two new ones...




ps claremylove...I note in your sig there is a 20p challenge I have about £6 pounds of those that I was going to put into my sealed pot but would love to save them seperately could you point me in the right direction...I've got alot of pots to fill lol:)

Hi 133na

Yes, I do collect 20ps. There was a challenge last year for this, but I don't think there is one for this year (well, not that I've seen) https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/774299. But I keep collecting because I just can't spend them anymore (it really can be addictive). And every little helps to clear those debts.

So true it is addictive. I remember many yrs ago when these small 5p came out( I was very young) my (late) Dad hated them as they would fall through the smallest of holes in pockets so he started putting them in a glass milk bottle.
I have done this also. I hate having them in my purse and and don't like them mixed with 1p and 2p. As all I can picture is a Glass bottle with the sun reflecting of silver coins on the kitchen sill in the morn.(no coppers allowed.)

Hi guys,

£4 for me today. I did have another one but I had to spend it in a shop as I felt guilty giving a £20 note for £1.95 of purchases, and I didn't want all that change sitting in my purse waiting to be spent. Annoying though. The £4 I nicked off my sister - swapped them for £1 coins and don't think she's noticed yet!! :money:

another £2 coin in my pot

I headed for town today to bank my £28 when the bus driver gave me another one (bless him). So, that's £30 this month. I've now passed £100 which I didn't think I'd be able to achieve.
