Oh great.
Last time there was a craze for Beatrix Potter 50p's we had customers ask us to empty our cash draws to look through coins then be called names for saying sorry we can't open our tills crammed with hundreds of pounds to find you a mrs tigglewinkle coin

I always give out rare looking coins to nice customers just incase they're worth something, the rude ones can rot.

There was a woman I used to work with who annoyed the sh*t out of me in her desperation to find all the coins, as though she was going to be a millionaire.
I'd cash up on a night and she'd be ransacking all my 50p bags looking for them. :rant:

What a rubbish waste of money....we have 10ps, fish and chips and cricket... pffft! Is that modern Britain? No, better make some with some old dear lying dead in the snow or a disabled person soaking on a pool of their own piss as their PIP was refused :idc:

Queuing is very British

Then issue stamps... it would be cheaper, I appreciate people collect things.

If you like yeah... it's a silly waste of money.
Is it meant to make you feel more British or something? Just a pointless expensive gimmick to me.

You won t be saying that when you need a 10p and one of these are the only ones available

They do a myriad of other designs anyway. I doubt it's cost more than normal.
Most things in life are pointless at their core really.

To mint and distribute 26 new coins won't cost much? It's ok though because everything is pointless then? ...I give up :laugh:

I never said that. I said they produce new designs on the back of the coins all of the time regardless of collectable sh*t like this.
I never said it's ok because everything is pointless. I said everything could be described as pointless. Especially when we personally have no use or interest.
Give the horse a stroke for me whilst you're up there though.

This is a debate forum how is me having an opinion being on a high horse?
'Most things in life are pointless at their core really.'
That is exactly what you said... :/
Regardless of your mocking in relation to my view on this I still say it's gimmicky and a waste of resources. If you don't agree, I don't care.

I never said your opinion was anything
Your uncalled for attitude.
I haven't mocked your view on anything.
Yes? I said most things are pointless really. That's not me saying it's "ok" that was me saying it's not really the strongest argument for it not to happen. One man's pointless is another man's fun. I daresay many people would describe this little forum as pointless yet we who use it get something out of it.
I haven't asked you to care about anything. I don't give two blue tits.
