Women's money bag. I've never met a bloke with a leather bag designed to carry coins. You ghey.
Its a manly money bag! Its big with room for lots of coins. A womans purse is something which is too small for the function for which she intended it for and was always due for a clearout six months before she actually does it.I've noticed this a lot more, it's a pain. It doesn't actually go onto ".00" at all, from ".99" straight to ".01". To be honest I've never been to a garage where they've got pissy about the penny.
That said, if I can help it I prefer to just brim the tank every week. Far easier to do that and forget about it.

I was in the queue behind a retard who was arguing about the eternal penny the other day. He turned purple and swore a lot...
Oh, how we laughed...
I hardly think he was bothered about the penny, more like he was bothered about breaking his £20 and having to carry £19.99 in his farahs.Oh, how we laughed...

MONEY BAG!! 
What's wrong with a good old-fashioned debit or credit card?
I don't remember the last time I used cash to pay for fuel.

Different opinions & all that but I use cash for everything I can, I've always hated the average high street bank & have as little to do with them as possible.What's wrong with a good old-fashioned debit or credit card?

Half of you lot are pussies!
£1.379, and I can hit £10, £20, £30 on the button.
But that's the point, the op could hit .00 on the button before the refurb & now he can't. I have found the same at my local after their refurb & it has been driving me nuts. I've stopped it on the .00 once since & when I put the nozzle back it jumped to .01. £1.379, and I can hit £10, £20, £30 on the button.
It's a conspiracy I tells ya.
I've experienced this a lot suddenly in the last year or two.. always had no problem stopping on a nice round £20/£30 but now always seem to end up a penny over!
And have also experienced the pump stopping at £20.00 and then as the nozzle goes back, rolling over to £20.01... one can't help but think they are trying to diddle us!

Put same or £30 in at Tesco off the North Circular, and £12 at a Total at Tamworth Services.
That would seem to suggest pumps on the mainland are no different from Northern Ireland's, and likewise in the South, when putting €xx .
Heck, I'd no issue putting .xx cents in too, to get rid of them - so I really can't appreciate how others are struggling to put in a round amount.
