  • £2 in the pig today but not much over the last few days.

    decided to do a pot for £2 coins as well and save for treats throughout the year and towards holiday spending money(not thta we have any money to go on one at the moment but im living in hope).

    where do you all change all the small change eg 1p, 2p, 5ps etc? my bank and hubbies will only take 5 bags at a time and i have a lot already so by december it will be loads(with any luck)

    #1317 the bottle is FULL. It weighs 20.6kg lol, I'll weigh the empty bottle later when I've counted it.

    I've been off work this week poorly sick.gif following my holiday, but I've just emptied my purse and added 80p to the temporary jar. I've decided that all purse/wallet change up to 50p will go in the bottle and ALL roadkill. (50p's won't fit and keeping £1's saves me withdrawing funds from the bank)

    oooohhhhh I got a star!!!!!!!! yay!!!!! Glad I popped in now!
    Just potted £4 which is £1 per day till Monday.
    Anyone watch the comic relief thingy with Lenny Henry etc? bawled my eyes out. Makes you think how lucky we all are. My daily £1 that I pot is an absolute fortune to them poor things. So sad.
    Have a good w/e folks.
