    Default Shopping trolley 'Hack'

    I much prefer shopping with a trolley as opposed to a basket and seen this on YT so thought I'd test it out today. Works a treat. I'll be keeping an old key in my wallet now as I don't often have money on me.

    Fucking brilliant and tight arsed at the same time. Will use this as the amount of times I get out of the car with the family only to hunt around for 10 minutes to find a pound, then to go to cig kiosk in supermarket to be told they dont give change and you have to buy something (cunts). lol

    Thanks to piggzy

    I run my own Precision Engineering company and made some pound coin sized disc's out of some plastic bar ends which me and the wife keep in our cars, I'm just waiting for the day when some one says they will have the trolley before I've put it back and they give me a pound

    Me Ma had a coin sized disk on her keys that did the same, with the name of a charity on it. I thought the days of shoving cash in trollys was over, me mum was never the first to catch on to a trend.

    Blimey, you lot only just found out about this?!

    Ive been in the trolley game for years. When I was about 10 I used to know how to get a trolley from bejams using a match stick. The mechanism was different and only wanted a 10p deposit to work. I used to get loads of people offering me 10p for my trolley to save me 'taking it back'.

    One highlight was to have ur own trolley key. The bit you put in to get ur money back. Usually found from one of the knackered trolleys out the back or round the side of the supermarket. I got the action of putting the key in, taking the 10p and removing my key again with a match down to a t. I was going round inside now and getting the money from trolleys left at end of the aisles and stuff. Made me plenty of sweet money that did....

    Nowadays it's all a bit more high tech, but I know you can open an asda trolley and then just pull the pound out!

    I can open them as well with a car key jiggled in the slot.

    Not all trollies are the same though....

    Can't believe anyone would admit to such a set of heinous criminal acts as this. You are truly a criminal mastermind and also Uber trolley hacker.

    We used to jiggle chocolate out of the machines on railway platforms - not in the same league as you obviously - I mean the number of 10ps you have diddled Bejam out of, you must be on your way to your first million :-)

    I am surprised this is not the hottest topic on HUKD!

    I always have a couple of pound coins in the car and some of those trolley tokens. It is not only just trolleys you often need the cash for. Parking meters, toll roads etc...

    Apparently Tesco have seen nearly 50% increase in trolleys getting lifted since the 5p tax came into effect. Fucking pikeys... I did a 'Big Shop' last weekend and I had to get 15 carrier bags. That was 75p for 15 of Sainsburys bag for life quality bags that i will use time and time again.
    I throw them in the boot of the car so they are always with us when we go shopping and if any of them split, they replace them for free.

    As someone who works with nature, the tax is a good thing and is hardly going to break the bank if you are sensible about it.

    I think people are also blind to what this 'Tax' is. Some supermarkets have charged for bags for years! The 'Tax' is not a tax as such, they are required to charge it and put the money back into areas they see fit. When carrier bags were 'free' the cost was dissolved into the products you buy. As a result now the supermarkets do not need to do this, although it will hardly affect prices.

    I'm guessing that 5p is too much to pay so paying a pound is much better lmao. Noone really cares. 5p is not going to break the bank. I've always refused carrier bags for a few items anyway. Gotta do your bit.

    Actually the story I read was that they had to add security tags to baskets:

    I have a keyring that you poke in the coin slot, it releases the trolley and you can remove it immediately

    http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...757008&alt=web

    Handy if you have little ones and doubt take the trolley back.

    Also doubles as a bottle opener.

    Cheers Chubbs, I've been getting stuck in at work and am a fair bit ahead on my projects so I thought I'd make my own trolley key. Hadn't seen one before looking at your eBay link. There's also a short instructables I read beforehand:

    Had a part-time job at Bejam and used to lock up the back doors at night - but not before chucking a sealed box of 150 Mars Bars/Marathon in the bin out the back. When we all said goodnight and went our separate ways, I used to hang about for 5 minutes and then nip and get the box out the bin. Was a bugger to cycle home with that weight under my arm. I still have all my own teeth, honest!

    I have no idea what you cunts are going on about. Who the fuck wants to push a trolley around a shop when they deliver to your front door for a couple of quid?
