Well I tried my "hide the money so the machine doesn't know" routine today. Twice I had all the cash in my hand and last quid it boarded!

if theyre's say, £5.75p in credits on a fruit and im playing on £1 i will do a spin on 25p then spin on 50p to round it off :/
my mates hate it but i have to do it lol.

also counting up before the end off the day is unlucky aparently so we dont do it.

Fuck having credits in when playing a red, so when you get the top if you have credits and it goes 105 it Auto spunks done to 60! In fire pubs never a good thing!!!

Agree with the second one lol
If there's that odd amount of credit for me I just spin it off after I've finished on the machine

I use to have a lucky pennie that I rubbed on the start button lol. Also if I have nudges and no credits and getting off the fruit I'll always nudge in something to avoid the let em spin.

Thats what a shrapnel pot is for!!

I Keep all my shrapnel in my back left pocket. I never touch it, say a round of drinks was £3.20, I would use £4 coins instead of 3 and a 20. All that goes in a jar at the end of the day.

I could easily put shrapnel in for the credit but my superstition is to nudge a non let them spin reel set on my last credit. Dunno why I do that.

I do it because I don't like the thought of leaving someone a cheap win.

I have this old wine fermenting jar that I use for my shrapnel. Anything below and including a 50p goes in there. When it comes to count it I smash it all in that asda counter... Fuck counting it at home, I just let them have the %.

The one thing I love is when you count your dough after a night on the razzle... I normally have at least a jimmy fenner in shraps..

Its called a Demijohn jar, i used to have one but dropped it, it is amazing how much you build up in those things.
