£2 Savers Club for 2020

Well, the rain may be falling here, there and everywhere but there is a definite drought of the £2 coin variety in my local area! I suppose the good part of that is that I haven't spent any money, but that doesn't get my tin filled up, does it!? Oh well, got a few essential spends this week so will just have to hope (and maybe ask!) for the right change!

Well done Nellie75 on asking. Does pay off sometimes, and some staff will get to know that you save them and always give them to you in your change.
I had 2 at bingo on Sunday night in my winnings
. Going again tonight

Most of the times, I get scammed on internet when buying various services so now I have made a point to not blindly buy services and courses. This is for long term and will save me money.

Evening, team! I'm back in the game! Two lovely plain coins exchanged with my Mumma, taking my total to £64. I've still got a long way to go to catch up with a lot of you though! Keep up the good saving!
