I found it left over from a layover in London, when I flew back from Ireland. (I have some change, too, but that’s too heavy to mail [or so I imagine].)
Anyway, you want £10? If you do, enable your email and post a post indicating as much. If there are many takers, there’ll have to be some sort of contest or competition, so keep that in mind when you post. If there aren’t many takers, i.e. only one, then you’re a shoe-in.
I’m posting not for myself, but for my 7 yr olds son Andrew. He LOVES foreign currency and has a huge jar of it that he will spends hours sorting and going through.
MikeG, if Andrew would like some foreign coins, I have quite a few from my overseas travels. Send me an e-mail and tell me where you want them sent and their his.
But then again, if the kid loves foreign currency give it to him. Or someone who could do with taking advantage of the strong pound and change it up for around $17 dollars. That’ll get a poor student a lot of ramen.
Well, I’m currently unemployed, dead broke, and have had to suspend my job search due to a bad case some weird thing with my digestive tract (I won’t go into the details because I don’t want to turn this into a TMI for Dollars thread) and I could really use the bread.
What a great idea. I have £1o as well which I found buried amongst reciepts in my wallet the other day. And seeing as I’m leaving for New Zealand to spend my third year of uni there, I will have very little use for this £10 note. So, I guess I’ll also pick someone then since there seem to be at least 2 people interested in (almost) free money…
Whoa! 18 bucks is like… whoa top ramen! If I eat a package a day, that would be almost enough to feed me for all of my freshman year of college! (But then I’d have to find some use for all of this scholarship money, and I’m not 18, so it’d be illegal for me to use it to buy alcohol. :()
£10 eh? Make it £15 and you have got yourself a deal mister. I got overheads, by the time it takes me to rip open an envelope containing a 10-spot and hold it up to the light to check for an ‘un-bearded Queen’ watermark I’ll have lost the £5 I could have made from doing other things.
I don’t like to take the 1st offer, sweeten the deal a little and we’re in business. I’ts good to haggle so feel free to put in an offer over 10 but under 15. If you like the was I do business maybe you can send me money on a regular basis. I think you are onto something and there is a definite market for your product. That market is me.
Hey, since the ten pound note is worth a lot of other smaller coins, why not change it up for Britain’s most interesting coin, and then use part of it to cover postage?
That way you could send some to everybody.
I mean, I know it’s not as much fun. I sound like my Mom. ::sigh::
