hi jakesmum
if any of you have got a hsbc account they have a new machine where you chuck all your change in and it counts it for you and it doesnt charge you and you dont have to count it into seperate bags ive used it a couple of times and its really good and it gives you a printout of what youve put in.it goes into your hsbc account normally about 1hr after unless its a saturday-then it normally goes in on a monday although it does take the fun out of counting it all :)

My local Natwest has one too.
Put another 14p in today i found in my car ashtray. Wahey! Hope i can keep it up!

we got there about 9am but half the shops wasnt open im glad we didnt set off any earlier we came from hull the idea was we'd get there early before it gets busy but didnt work out like that people where sat outside most of the shops waiting for them to open.the best thing about meadowhall is the chinese place where you fill a tub it was the bestttt

Can I please join?

I started this a month ago and in my pot there is £27. I am determined to have no spend days til the 3rd so that is my total for this year lol.
Next year I am aiming for £100, anything more will be a bonus.

Any idea which branches this is?

Does anyone else not want to give over their £2 coins? Or is it just me?

2p from Moorgate tube station, had to duck down and pinch it off the crowded stairs this time. Tramp-man wasn't there today so he missed out, I gained

Hi everyone - TheBees are looking forward to counting all our change tomorrow evening. Hoping for around £500 including a jar full of £2 coins which will be a large part of the total. It will all be going towards our holiday next year. Must remember to get some money bags!
