shopping trolley tokens

6leander6

Hi, can anyone advise where I can buy a trolley token, ideally a 2 euro and 1 euro together. Thanks.

Go into your local pub and ask for a token for the cigarette machine. It's what I use

Why cant you keep a one and two euro coin in your cars glovebox?

Great excuse to give blood.

They have the keyring tokens with a 1 and 2 euro on them at the moment

Wouldn't that be more difficult to come by than a €2 coin?

Me? If I find myself caught short by having no cash (paying by card) I usually give the trolley a good yank. They pop free fairly easily

50 cent coin works fine in Lidl (must check in Aldi) also a 50 cent coin is often just large enough to open the mechanism but small enough so you can slip it back out again

Depends on the trolley mechanism, at one stage Lidl had a mechanism that allowed small fingers to pull the one euro coins back out so you'd get kids wandering around stealing the money out of the trolleys :rolleyes:

I'll sell you a set for €5 plus p+p

I can recommend a trolkey, it costs €3 and you keep it on your keyring.

I find that 1 or 2 euro coins works just fine, keep a couple in the car.

Some charity shops sell them. I bought mine last daffodil day.

I have loads of them, must start selling them so.

I have one on my key ring that the car dealer provides you with. Only noticed it last week.

I have the car a year.
