    Welcome to all the newbies :j - its sooo addictive, but certainly a good addiction lol!
    Hi, back in again this year but won't be able to take part until Feb as we are moving over the next couple of weeks.

    Are you moving in the hope that your new location will have more £2's available?! Good plan :T

    I feel that I must confess :eek: that it is I who has lots of the coins.......I will bank tham asap honestly! But I love to see the big pile sitting in my tin :o My mum has quite a few sitting on her desk too. She is very kindly keeping them for me till I have some money to swap. I told her under no circustances to spend them! Now, where is my non £2 money........??

    (£14 since I last posted :j)
    Challenge savings 2010-2016 £1564.60:j
    Sealed Pot Challenge #220 :staradmin :staradmin '16 £17.01
  • Woohooooo. I've reached my first milestone!:j Got another coin yesterday making a total of £20. I plan to pay the money towards a credit card bill whenever it amounts up to £20, and if I can collect at least £20 worth of these coins each month then that's an additional £240 off my annual CC bill plus whatever interest I would have paid - every penny (or £2 coin in this case) counts.

    So there'll be 10 more back in circulation tomorrow:)

  • I hear ya ladies!

    Anyone else finding these £2 coins hard to come by?! Struggling to fill up my jelly tots tube :p

    Deffo hard to come by here. Only got 1 since I started this challenge :( Hopefully Feb will bring plenty my way.

    Well done all, looks like I'm playing catch up :p

  • I think we need to have a round of applause for the OHs. :T

    When I reached my DH on Friday he produced two £2 coins that he had been saving for me (with a very proud grin I might add). He did threaten to start his own collection of £2 coins. But I think I convinced him that it would better if we joined forces. Though I think he has produced the last 3 or 4, so its for selfish reasons really ;)

    Thats our total up to £14
