    Wow saw this thread about 2 weeks ago and thought ok i will give it a go, as i don't often get £2 coins ie once in a blue moon, well it just goes to show how wrong i was !!

    Well i have banked my First £10 decided to put into Credit Union.
    and already have £2 towards my next lot of savings.
    So Thank you for the inspiration.

    You find that you start looking for £2 coins. Even when I have the correct money in my purse, I find that I change a note just to see if I get a £2 coin.

    Got another at the weekend, but didn't have 2 x £1 to buy another off my darling boyf :(

    Ah well, he might keep it for me!

    Anyone know where I can get money bags to pay mine in when I get to £100?? And how many bags Halifax take on one day???

    I have just counted up as I have popped a few in the pot over the last week without updating sig - I have an astounding £122 :j

    Can't believe it - I had planned to release them when I reached £100 but the little cow money pot was not quite full so going to see just how many it holds, would be nice if it got to £150 :cheesy: but I think thats pushing it a bit. Must admit its very heavy and the stopper looks like it may get pushed out with the weight.

    I really like the idea of a terrumundi pot but don't think I could bring myself to smash it at the end. Can you get the coins out using a pallet knife? I use to do that with my money pot as a child - it was a red post box made of tin ahh wish I had it now....:sad:
