    Thanks babes - cannot believe my recent hauls. I am trying to pay cash as much as possible which has helped. I don’t know whether to carry on or go int reverse and see how fast I can spend it 💰

    Hello searchers and savers! #14 checking in!

    Although I've been trying not to spend anything as much as I possibly can, I have been trying to pay cash for essential spends and I've managed to get my hands on 4 lovely plain £2 beauties to finally hit 25% of my target at £50! Looking forward to receiving my first medal! We are indeed nearly halfway through the challenge but I am hoping to start to use cash a bit more, and certainly when I go on holiday, so I'm still going to do my best to chase that target! Well done to everyone for some amazing achievements despite the world being against us right now! And a big thank you to Gem-gem for running the challenge for us all :smiley: xxx

    Hi Sallyp2,
    If you have something in particular that you were saving for eg a piece of furniture then buy it. But if you do not need the money then I would continue to save. 
    What would others do?

    If I  had reached my target I would spend it on something but then carry on saving to see how many I could save. Well done Sally p2!
    So far this month I have managed 12 £2 coins. I will add it to my total at the end of the month.
