    One draw back of this though, I had to pay a whole £1 instead of 60p for parking today as I had no change. Checked all my pockets bottom of my handbag etc but all empty.

    Must remember to keep some change in the car for the future.

    Hi all, Phew!! Finally read through all the posts.
    I'm glad to say that saving all my loose change is becoming a habit.
    Trouble is, like "shop-to-drop", I never have change for anything anymore, have to keep breaking into notes.

  • Hi guys

    Haven't posted for a while so hellooooooo everybody

    Am still dropping the odd coin into my sealed tin, however.... as I am trying to have as many NSD as possible, I havent really had much to put in.

    Will have to find coins somewhere tho as my lovely friend bought me a terramundi for my birthday, so now have two sealed pots to fill !! Did put 5 pound coins from my birthday money in the terramundi to start it off - how sad.

    And another friend bought me some balloons ?? so bring on the papier mache animals!!! maybe not. !!

    Hope everyone well
