Morning all - I'm at 34.47 at the moment. Some is in the change pot and some in savings. Im thinking it will be a bit of a pain cashing in the change pot so that money I will keep til the end of the year for xmas and anything saved on my online savings acct will be used for paying off overdraft. It's nice keeping track. Its surprised me how much I have managed to put back already. It's changing my mindset about money! Proud moment!
Keep going everyone!Declutter 2020 - 267/2020 :j

If you have a NatWest account some branches have a fee free coin sorter and then you can have the amount added to your account.
Alternatively, & I've done this, I'd take your loose change to the supermarket & use the self service tills. You do get some odd looks but better than paying 10% of it using the coin sorters you find in the supermarket.
You can then transfer an equivalent amount to your savings pot0 -
