  • I could save for the lowest amount. Trouble is, that you can't take your change to the building society. They all want it bagged first. I have about £1 in loose change, but £5 in complete change, but they will take the £1 in pennies, but won't take the rest because there isn't enough for a bag. :confused:

    Does anyone remember when the Leeds gave out plastic tubes for saving money in?

  • ooo just read this and would like to join in please albeit a little bit late. I save change at the moment but not very successfully as I keep dipping into it for change for other things. I also hardly ever use cash but have already decided that I am going to work in cash in future so I know exactly what I am spending. Sign me up
