5p coins in a 75cl wine bottle

I have seen a few posts regarding this from people saving loose change. My full to the brim wine bottle contained a rather disappointing £52.50 😐

For those saving higher denominations of coin it's worth considering the insurance implications as most home insurance policies have a low limit for cash.

We've always saved oddments of change - it's a great easy way of saving a bit here and there, and although it doesn't mount up so fast now as it used to, we do still get sufficient when we count up once a year to add to our spending money for holiday to enable some additional "tea & cake" type stops!
