Hello,
Totals all updated where requested;)
I'm wondering how to convert my old ££'s when the new ones are released? I keep my ££'s in a tin so might have to swap them over to a new tin when the new coins are released:huh:
In the meantime, some great totals as usual from us all:cool:

As Jo Blogs has reminded us, we do need to remember that the old £1 coins will cease to be legal tender in October.
"Everyone with a piggybank or coin jar needs to turn them up upside down and shake out all your £1 coins, because as of 15 October the current £1 coins will cease to be legal tender and will soon be un-spendable. They are being replaced with new 12-sided £1 coins from next month and by 15 October, shops will no longer accept the old pound coins."

But the banks will so really no reason to panic, I took in £1000 in old £20, £10 and £5 yesterday, years after they were removed circulation.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Banking & Borrowing, and Reduce Debt & Boost Income boards.
