My plastic coin holder, about 9 years old, is on it's last legs and I need to think of replacement. Not difficult, I know, they're fairly cheap. But...... What do you do with coinage? What would you recommend? Are they all pretty much of a muchness? Where's the best supplier of such items? |

Get your nan, your aunt, your wife, your kids etc etc to make a money bag out of old curtains or any old material you have. Good bags last about a year each, cost nothing, and they never leave your sight.

Thanks for the idea, Sussex. Any others? |

I don't like coin holders as they cause an unsightly bulge in my trousers... For a good value bag go to the bag,handbag and purse section of T K Maxx. Mine cost £3 and rolls up to fit in my pocket. |

I just use a bumbag. I can't use those coin holder thingys cos when I try to put coins in they all spring out all over the place so I give up and got the bumbag. I just dread anybody leaning in the window to grab it and drag me out with it
