£2 savers club for 2022

CazzieLT

Well, I must witter on about my love for £2 coins more than I realised - today my office buddy presented me with one for a swap! Now I've hit double figures already and we're not even halfway through January! Well chuffed with that! xxx

Well done CazzieLT.

I'm very pleased to report that the I'm finally saving.  First one from bingo was a lovely First World War coin, the second was from my local corner shop when I went to get milk - a plain one but still very welcome.  So currently up to £4! 

Off to the office this afternoon to do a petty cash reimbursement - hopefully there will be one or two in the tin that I can swap with the lovely £1 coins I'm taking over with me - better to be prepared than not

Well done Hummingbird0_12 - I've also just collected my third one from the corner shop!  I'm shopping tomorrow at Mr T so hopefully get another one.

Well done everyone on collecting those lovely £2 coins.  It seems there are more about this year already but I guess if people have banked last year's treasure trove, then they are back in circulation.

I didn't get any whilst shopping on Saturday, despite me asking if I could have one in my change, but bingo last night was very fruitful, resulting in 5 lovely gold coins coming into my possession (1 from my friend who knows I collect).  All plain but still welcome in my pot!  

No shopping plans today, but bingo again on Tuesday so, who knows?  .

Oh yes I love cash & will continue to use it as long as we can! Hooray! xxx

5 x£2 coins all in one go Clare, wow!

I know, I was very suprised but it came in my winnings so no control over how that happens.

I also love cash - I feel more in control of my spending if I see the cash disappear from my hand.  So easy to overspend when using a debit card.
