Who else is obssesed with the weigth in there terrimundi?

I got one of these delightful things for my Anniversary from my sis in law.

I've never ever been a saver, (ever). But this wee thing is changing me for the better now I know I do not earn interest on my terrimundi, and its not the best mse thing to do.

But for the first time in all my years I am saving !

pound coins dont live in my wallet now for me to spend I actually get excited I have them, and I cant wait to get home to put them in my pink pot!

Its made me realise the value of my money.

Anyone else in love with there Terrimundi?

  • Suppose it stops you from 'borrowing' money for a magazine or the shop etc though!
