    I also have a terramundi pot for my £2 coins which I was given last year, but have resorted to good old jam jars for my other challenges as I didn't get any saving pots for Christmas. Obviously have to make my wants more obvious on my santa list next year :rotfl:

    I just have a jam jar for now, actually have both £2 and 50ps in the same one at the moment. Will find another tin if/when I get too many to fit :)

    That looks like an enormous £2 coin pot.
    My one holds £1000.
    What about your pot?

    With my hubby sometimes I have to be as subtle as a brick. I buy it and give it to him, he then pays for it. I have tried hinting in the shop in front of the item but that doesn’t always work.

    We keep 5ps in a jam jar.
    We got a free M money box from the Metro bank which we keep our ones and twos in.
    I have a chocolate fund money box that the road kill goes in £55 last year, £95 the previous year ( gave some to charity plus had a nice meal out - there is such a thing as a free dinner!)
    I have an authentic 1990’s china Mrs Potts money box, which I have saved 20ps in but not this year.
    Finally, to go with Mrs Potts I have a Chip money box.

    All my other coins go in a large multi coloured piggy bank. It is rather ugly and belonged to DH.

    Another £2 coin to go into my pot, thanks to hubby.

    Spent the morning hoovering behind the sofa, lots of skirting boards, behind the beds and in the wardrobes. What an interesting life I lead!
