  • I haven't started putting my £1's in yet as I start mine on 1st January.

    But I do have about £10 in it from this years still lol. Was just a habit of putting them in after I'd cashed mine in

    £31 in for me and this month done. I've added some folding so my wonderful offspring will think there is less in there and steer clear!
    I learnt that lesson from the teramundi I saved in for my sons 18th, he regularly eased out coins with a knife and was heartily disappointed not to get the £200+ his sister found when she opened hers!
