    Quick post as at work and was hour and half late as had to take DS to school this morning.

    Got £2 in my change at Costa on the way in.. needed the energy!

    Naomi, we're neck and neck! Not that I'm competitive at all...:rotfl:Up to £36 also!

    Got x5 (£10) this week by pure luck and just kinda cheated tonight for another x2 (£4)... had to give myself change from the till in my second job having bought myself a snack... decided to give myself it in x2 £2 coins (change was exactly £4) as I knew if I did this it will prevent me spending the money tomorrow (my last day of my weekly budget), forcing me to save it. :A

    This leaves me with only 31p to live off tomorrow but I'm sure I'll cope, there's food in the fridge! Lol

    One more in the pot!
    I sort of wish I'd kept counting now - I suppose I could go through all my posts and add them up - but maybe the surprise will be worth it! :)

    Hi guys,


    Fabulousnews on the coat LOUDMOUTH. So I want to know all about it, what you are going to wear it for and BIG CONGRATS ON SAVING FOR TREAT NUMBER 2 ALREADY!
    Hiya Thread Mummy, I was begining to get worried about you.:)

    :) Thanks for congrats on coat, it is more of a mac for spring, from Marks, I will save for my winter coat after our June holiday.I have not had a new coat of any kind for years, and now it looks like this year I will have not one but two and it is all down to this thread,I honestly have had no hardship saving these coins but I would have found it hard to stump up 70 odd pounds in notes for something for myself.
    Thanks Observer for keeping us all motivated:T

    Seems like I haven't checked in for ages .... but I managed to haul 4 beautiful £2 coins today bringing my total up to £50 which I'm really chuffed about seeing that has only taken two months and like others have said you don't miss saving the odd £2 coin here and there but it soon adds up :D

    Fantastic news on the purchase of your spring mac loudmouth ... well done :T

    And as always a big "Thank You" Observer for your valued motivation :beer:

    Hi everyone
    I have added another 7 lovely £2 coins added to my pretty £2 pot last night after my WW meeting - I swapped them for a £10 note and 4 £1 coins :D
