    Hi everyone, hope you are all well and still saving. I managed to get another £2, which should have taken me to £64 but I've just spent it on a bunch of pond plants. Loving the £2 challenge as it means I haven't had to touch my quit smoking savings account and thanks to you guys inflicting me with £2 coin bug, I've managed to get the greenhouse, the growbags, seeds/plants and now a bunch of pond weed for the mini-pond I made in the garden. This is so much more fun being able to use the savings for something constructive! Thank you :)

    To all who are just starting out, welcome and good luck with finding those elusive, magical coins. They seem few and far between, but I know 32 of them that are back in circulation from this corner of the globe :)
    I reserve the right not to spend.
    The less I spend, the more I can afford.

    I'd love to join this group! I just joined the forum, but have been lurking for a while and have been saving them for about a month and I just made it up to £40 today! Plan to bank it when I get to £50 and put it in my ISA :cheesy:

    Just got another - hubby went to pay for drinks with a £2 coin - grabbed it quick and gave 2 x £1 coins instead - What does he think he's doing... does he not know they are 'preciouses':confused:
    Up to £20 now - slow but sure!

    :hello:

    Have been doing this for a couple of weeks. I got £6.00 in £2 coins the other day and stuck it all into the pot! :D

    Hoping for a couple of hundred by the end of the year.
