Only fools and horses : it's not fcuking funny.

 

I hear that!

Men who keep coins in a wallet are the sort who you'd not want to leave kids unattended with.

 

 

Never understood the need for those stupid purses wallets and having to scrabble around with, at best, two digits to try and extract the coinage, whilst squinting into the gloomy depths of the coin pocket. One of the few remaining bastions of manhood are fully functional pockets in our clothes. Use 'em or lose 'em.

Well to buck the trend I do use a purse now. Didn't for a while until i discovered that low slung sofas were gobbling up all my loose change <fanahh> Now instead of loosing just a few coins I can loose the whole bloody lot I don't use one with a zip on btw but the clam type which I think are a tad more manly maybe? Trouser pockets last longer too btw.

If your pockets wear out, it's a sign from God (or Gok, if you're that way inclined) that it's time for a new pair of strides.

Been struggling with the whole coins in pocket or wallet thing as well.

 

I started keeping them in a small resealable transparent bag at one point, but was told it doesn't look right...

 

I'm thinking maybe keep a pouch with string pull. Kind of like they used to keep the gold coins in, in the old days. That should be considered 'Manly' right ? Bit like a pocket watch would be manly I'm thinking.

I dump all change in a jar. Hate having it weigh down my linen trousers.

[Zuber]

Walk around with a Jar. Interesting idea, might try it.

Ding. Nothing less than a pound coin makes it into my pocket for any length of time. Anything smaller gets dumped in a jar or the car. Only problem is I've got about 20 large coffee jars of coins currently and cannot be arsed to sort/count it.

See I keep the change on me and make a point of spending it first to keep the amount low. On the other hand my spare change jar has £5 notes in it. Whenever I get one I put it in there. I've not spent a £5 note in about 8 months!

HOT TIP:

Find a local supermarket with self checkout that uses a funnel type setup for coins. Grab all your change. Wait for a quiet time of the day there and go buy something...

 

Yes, I have done this with a pocket full of 1,2, 5 pences I've accumilated. I stick in the odd larger coin as well, makes me feel less guilty.

I give my big jar of change to Jan, she throws it in the Machine at Asda normally 40 quid ish. Same as most blokes only ever use notes and pounds coins, get pissed off with the pound coins to be honest. Just throw them in the car for car parks.
