Got another one today, people keep saving them for me so it's getting quite expensive! Feel like I'm doing well though x

Of course you can all join, more the merrier PurpleMumofTwo will be along at some point to put you all on the front page I have no doubt We all save for what we want - there is no specific date to open the pots. Some people save to say £20 or £50 and then bank it, others save for a specific event like a holiday or christmas, and other just have a big pot and want to fill it! So entirely up to you

So Cankle, what is this Gothic piggy bank??!

and Flat Eric, what did you decide to save your coins in? I save mine in a tall thin tube that had choc chips in in at one time. It's the perfect size for £2's!

I feel £2 are a bit lacking at the moment so big congrats to everyone that has found one! And even more congrats to Nikki on the engagement :T

Welcome back to Marylin Monroe - nice to hear the £2's come in handy to assist in the debt payment - just proves our cause is worthwhile

Hope everyone is happy and carry on keeping us all up to date with your progress xx

One more for my pot, thanks to Lisa our hairdresser, I've got her saving them too now.

haven't had many £2 coins in my change recently :mad: and those that have been sat in my purse for weeks have finally been spent. (put two in a collection this week) and know I spent another shiny gold coin on something of which I can't remember now ?

Going to start afresh.... off to ponder what to save them in and what for ?

NB - what are you saving your £2 coins for ?

One more in the pot today - I did have 3 given to me in change at a local food festival yesterday and hung on to them but couldnt resist a couple of family lamb and leek pies knocked down from £4 to £2 so I feel they where put to good use! £80 now towards Christmas spending

I save mine in a tin which makes a nice sound when you rattle it

I'm just after a little 'spare' kitty for Xmas - saving a little at a time is painless and yet mounts up. I've hit £58 now without feeling it. :beer:

And another one....found in washing machine. Money laundering at its best:rotfl::rotfl: Not from my pockets. Rule in this house is that you make sure your own pockets are empty. So its finders keepers I'm afraid:D.
