    3 little gold beauties in my winnings on the last bingo session for this year. A good night all round :T

    Well done on winning at Bingo. What an added bonus being given £2 coins as well.

    Well done Glitterbaby. What sort of pot do you hold your coins in?

    An old tin of Kenco. I reckon it will hold about £100.

    Got another one last night at my son's school festive disco, and its a Britannia one which is my first special one.

    Fantastic gem gem :j. That’s a good amount going into the pot.

    I’ve picked up two more today from the bakery. Both plain but still safely potted.

    :beer: Yes, it makes up for the lack of coins over the past week or two.

    I’ve been quite lucky this month but know from experience that some months can be sparse with finds so save as much as I can when I can :)
