Welcome AngieMcKPz to the £2 challenge.  You are number 9.

We look forward to hearing about any updates for you.  

Wonderful ~ thank you. 

I have been saving £2 coins for at least 12 years now for holiday spending money. 
Sadly due to Covid, we don't seem to be getting very many at the moment.

This is my 'piggy bank' where I save all my £2 coins. I bought it on ebay. It is an antique US Post Office box door set in my types of wood ~ it is my treasured possession.

I have just opened it and there is £10 in it.

I'm not sure at the moment how often I am gong to open it as I like the surprise just before holidaying.

Welcome back again Grumpyoldmoo, you are number 10.  Hopefully you will achieve your target.  Only time will tell.

Wow, AngieMcKPz, that is an amazing saving pot.  No wonder its your treasured possession  .

£10 is a good start - I'm still under starter's orders but it will happen

I would like to join please, I received my 1st £2 today in my change. No specific target as I will just see how many I can collect!

Welcome to the challenge Hummingbird0_12.  You are number 11.

Well done on securing your first coin.  I'm still waiting for mine, but it's shopping day tomorrow so, who knows what will happen.

Thank you  for my welcome and my number, I am also number 11 on the sealed pot challenge woohoo! I will be combining my £2 total into the sealed pot total but keeping them in seperate pots through the year
Received another one today!

#4 reporting a win! Convinced Nanna to go out for lunch today (she wasn't keen but once she had her fried bread she was glad she came!) and I won a £2 coin in my change! Nanna's favourite cafe prefers cash anyway so as long as the amounts add up right, I'm usually onto a winner! (Obviously I know it's a spend but getting 92-year-old Nanna to eat anything these days is a win in itself so it's something of an investment!) So that brings me to £6 in the pot - quite pleased with that only a week into the new year! How are you all doing!? xxx

Well done CazzieLT - I'm still waiting for my first one to arrive in my hands.  Bingo tonight so maybe tonight will see me secure one to go into my empty pot!

Thank you claremylove! My luck continued when my little bro went and produced one for me to swap - I have the family so well trained! That takes me to £8 in 9 days My luck didn't extend to bingo tonight though, in any way, shape or form - I hope you did better than we did with £2s and with wins! xxx
