Title: MONEY.
Post by: Amigo on 10 July 2010, 23:10:42

Just emptied out the whiskey bottle & bagged up £159 leaving between £20/30 in shrapnel not big enough to bag up that can go back in the bottle to start the ball rolling again.
    Meanwhile that's nearly enough for another years Beastie road tax due this month! 8-)

I have one of the big vodka bottles and since the misprint of the 20p pieces with the date missing I have dropped all 20p's in the bottle that I have had as change.

So I might have a couple of hundred quid or a few grand in the bottle. :y

NO, they charge you to save you having to count your own money.......!!!

If you are happy to sit around and count coppers for an hour thats fine, but for 8.9% of £15 I am happy to chuck all my coins in a machine and be done in 2 minutes......!!

Allready worn one of these out and on my second one now.

I allways seem to come home with a pocket full of change, so now just switch this on and frop the srapnel in.

Also have a taxi coin holder, sits nicely in the door pocket when out and about etc
