    I used to work with a lady who would "buy" everyone's £2 coins. She'd have £100's at the end of the year.

    I used to do better in my last job as I shared an office with the lady who sorted petty cash and she would always let me know when she had some in the tin, or save any she had in her purse for me. The lady where I work now is good but she doesn't go as far out of her way as the previous lady did.

    I caught my other half out the other day for not letting me know when he has them (he went to give one to a friend, which some other cash, to buy a round at the bar - I rarely move as quickly as I did that night to stop them walking off with it! ha ha). He's been duly reprimanded and told to save them for me to swap at all times! :rotfl:

    2 x coins for me today. It's been a quiet week but also coming up towards my payday so I think I'm spending less! haha

    I nearly battered MrM for a £2 coin the other day when I asked if he had any change. 11yo lost a tooth and although he doesn't believe in the tooth fairy he still wants to find money under his pillow. (Don't we all?!) It turns out I mis-heard MrM and he had £2 not a nugget for my collection. Bah.
