    I've changed up £10 that I had in my pot and swapped it for a £10 note, in the hope that I don't break my pot, and that I can have some change from my spending money to put into the pot. Have also separated everything into single pots for coppers, 5p, 10p, 20p, 50p, £1, £2 is this a bit OCD or does anyone else do this? I was feeling my pot rattle and thought it such a shame should it smash from the coins, plus OH bought me it so only notes in there from now on.

    Found another 2p whilst tidying room


    7 pots no not at all OCD :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Thanks for the confirmation that I'm not mad re: every denomination in it's own pot :)

    Finally got some more roadkill this morning, bent down to pick up a bankers lost 1p coin from the floor on Moorgate, and right beside it was another one yay :)
