  • Well done Humminbgbird0_12.  

    Successful night at bingo last night.  Won £15 in which there were 2 x £2 coins in my winnings and had another one from the bar when I bought my diet drink.  Up to £22 already - very happy with that!

    Hello bit late joining in but can I come in again please?

    I have £52 already potted (some of that is the remnants of last years once I had banked up) - going for £400 again. £200 for me and £200 for the wildlife centre

    Also on the hunt for a Marconi £2 coin for hubby - he isn't collecting he just wants that one

    Two wins to report today! One from the card shop ('I'm so sorry, we don't have any five pound notes...' - NOT A PROBLEM!) and another from my well-trained bro who even went and got me my first fancy one! The 1807 abolition of the slave trade. Now tucked safely in my pot and a happy team of 8 making £16 :smiley:

  • Welcome back StokieBecks - it's never too late to join :).  I've put your target at £400 and you are number 12!. 

    What a good start to the year - £52 is excellent.  I banked several Marconi £2 coins at the end of last year (3 I believe) when I emptied the pot so they are back out there ready for your husband to find.

  • Well done CazzieLT.  Total is slowly creeping up!  Did have to laugh when reading your post - I almost find it impossible to hide my joy at receiving a handful of change in place of a crisp note  :D.

    No shopping plans today or tomorrow but will be popping into town on Saturday for my fruit and veg - so who knows!

    2 plain coins added to the pot from my supermarket change yesterday.

    £56 potted so far. Want to try and get to £62 by end of Jan to average one coin a day

    Supermarket refuses to change a note down, but when presented with a handful of pound coins may be coaxed into swapping for a £2 coins. [Youngest, who provides the muscle for shopping, is appalled at me.]
