    Another coin today in change. I’m not sure how I feel about swapping money for £2 coins ... I could just take £100 to the bank and get 5 bags of £2 coins. I like seeing what I can get and it’s all chance. It was a mini moment of joy to get a £2 coin in my change today 
    👏👏 Well done for achieving over 10% of your target.

    Sally I often swap what is in my purse for £2 coind for the simple reason  it makes me save...if I don't it's far too easy for it to get spent. If I have money left over I will happily swap it to coins

    Potted 6 plain and  a 2016 first world war one today - its not the boat one it has three soldiers on (not seen that before)

    One more plain beauty from Mummy T today, taking my current total to £14 - very happy with that in a lockdown January! I'm a swapper too - Mummy T, little bro and Nanna all know I am collecting and save any £2 coins they get for me to do a swap! They get my small change and everyone is happy! :) xxx
