Fragile Do Not Bend Feb 2018 1:26pm, 28 Feb 2018 2,832 posts	Quote Pin Fragile Do Not Bend That’s bizarre. A small shop paying in their takings would easily have more than 10 bags to pay in, and like you say, they just weigh it so takes no time at all.

XB Feb 2018 3:26pm, 28 Feb 2018 6,738 posts	Quote Pin XB Next time take 15 people with you and each one pays in £20. That'll stick it to The Rule Man. What's the point of a manager who can't flex the rules?
Fitz Feb 2018 4:46pm, 28 Feb 2018 1,795 posts	Quote Pin Fitz Nicholls595, Metro bank is your friend (if there's one near you). Coin counting machines, no commission charge for using, the machine spits out a slip that you take to the counter and they exchange for a wad of notes Not ideal walking out of a bank with £800 in £20s as I once did after emptying my coin jar, but weighing up the risk against the time spent counting and bagging coins, I thought it was worth it. If you actually bank with Metro (you don't need to bank with them to use their coin counting machine) they pay the proceeds straight into your account.
um Feb 2018 5:39pm, 28 Feb 2018 175 posts	Quote Pin um Wishing I had a coin jar like Fitz's ... How big is it? And only coins? (40 x £20 notes must be a lot easier and less obvious than £800 in loose change )

I'll be in if the school is open" Boss "But you have a 4x4 so you can get in" Me "I will be there. If the school is closed though, I'll be working from home" Boss "But you have a 4x4 so you can get in"
