    I'm not asking how anyone came by it (as it is the Royal Mint's job) but there's a really nice library 50p in the soapkill which is going straight into my album of fun coins.
    Not quite added to my cumulative total as not converted into ordinary lucre til I've found a wildeyed collector.

    Dig For Victory - I have all of a sudden started having the special edition 50p's come my way and I have started putting them aside. I have always collected unusual looking coins but had mainly reserved it for foreign coins. I like looking at the designs. I don't do it in a serious, organised way, I just have a kilner jar full of my coins, it makes me happy. It possibly makes me a little nerdy as well but oh well. :)

  • CONGRATULATIONS LUCKY PENNY - That's awesome

    2p roadkill yesterday

    Hen night out at the weekend was awesome. The only money I spent was on burger and chips at the end of the night for £3.60 (it was lush aswell). I got a free can of vimto and my friend got fanta (as I was wearing my bride to be sash!!!) £1 saving there.

    I was massively sozzled so I'd say a nominal £40 for the night. I had an absolutely fantastic night as well - it was great to be with all my friends.

    Also, got an email from my ex-boyfriend as he didn't know I was getting married. Don't know if there is any monetary saving by not replying to emails but it still felt good lol xxxx

    have a great day everyone xx
  • whoop whoop Lucky Penny! Good for you! Hope you use it to bring you joy x
