    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

    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 :o

    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 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.

    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.
