Every year I put £1 coins into this elephant money box my brother gave me. And each year the money that comes out of it at the end of the year is less and less because I’m using cash less often.

Here’s what I’ve got each year since I got it:

2016 – £120
2017 – £75
2018 – £89

2019 – £50

= £334 in 4 years

With lockdown and working from home since March I’ve been using cash even less.. so I guessed I’d have about £30 in it this year.

Today, on the last day of the year I opened it up and I have £36 in it. Or £370 in 5 years.

It really is the gift that keeps on giving. 👍🏻

I have some other totals which I’ll share soon.
