    I haven't formally joined the challenge but I am doing this. I save all my spare pennies, 2s, 5s, 10s and 20s in an empty coke tin. I have just filled the first one and am starting on my second. I have no idea how much is in it but it is quite heavy. I have just stuck a label on the tin with 01.12.2008 on the front and it sits on my kitchen window looking at me.
