We have the "plastic" bills in Canada.. They do stick together... I always count money twice or more before handing it over. The $20 bills are the worst somehow. We had them first, but now all our money has been converted

On the flip side it's probably not going to be fun for those who work in shops either with people deciding they need their £50 cashback in £5 notes to pay their brats school dinners etc

This is bull****
Polymer notes are used in like Canada and Australia now
Do you think Australia has a problem with them sticking together since its permanently like 40 ****ing degrees over there? No. Daily Fail strikes again

T* 30-05-2016 03:14 PM

Also the Bank of England could of least made the notes look good rather than that garbage

No its at the Start of brand new notes
lack of use makes fivers stick together

If I go to the band machine and take out $100, and it comes out in 5 $20 brand new bills... they stick, and this is always how it comes out. That's where you have to be careful.

We will see in 2020



I thought they were being phased in soon with all old fivers being taken away from use in 2020?

I bet they are much efficient for snorting coke

LT I am shocked.

as for me and money - I never have it long enough to ever really have a feel of it so I will not be any of the wiser.
