£2 Savers Club for 2017

  • Well, I have a glass jar.....namely an ex coffee jar that was lurking in the garage.

    I've raided the one source for monies/coins in the house i.e. My wife's handbag, requesting permission beforehand......and found nothing, ziltch, zero, nil return.....in £2 coins.

    I did find a mixture of foreign coins in my drawer and to my astonishment €270 in the same hide- e- hole. So I may not yet be an official member of this club, nor have found any £2 coins but I'm richer than I thought possible.

    Fantastic! I got a new pot from the £1 shop last week but nothing to go in it yet!

    Hubby bought me a new pot as an early wedding anniversary present. He is a lovey.
