  • I'm up for this, will continue to save 20p's and under - will continue £2 coins but seperately.

    I have a big biscuit tin my brother cut a slot into for me.

    December 1st is perfect start for me as thats when I count my 20p and under jar, perfect day to start afresh in my biscuit tin, saving for xmas 2008!

    Just gotta seal it first!!

    I ordered mine though Prezzybox. They are on quidco and get 8% back. They also give you £5 off if you spend more than £20. They do them singley for £17.50 or in packs of two for £32 or packs of three for £48. I ordered two and will give one as a birthday present, and altogether it cost me £31 and I should get about £2.50ish from quidco too.

    Oooppppsss see lost out by not hunting around :rolleyes:

    Count me in by the way. I've got an empty sealed tin, only openable with a tin opener. Should hold a fair few quid :T

    Remember if you are buying from ebay, you can go through quidco and get a few pence back too!!
