Here in the UK there seems to have been a shortage of £5, £10 and £20 notes from cash machines lately - no idea why?

The outcome of this was that I received a £50 note instead! :bigsmile:

Although some people may be familiar with these they are not something that is in everyday use here at all. I have only had about half a dozen £50 notes in my entire life and that was many years ago when I lived in London. This is one of the new polymer notes which were introduced in 2021 and even has the first AA serial number - so do I keep it or spend it???

I'd love to come up with a reason to keep it but I'd say this is a spender. hm Of course I do have several "spenders" in my collection but keep them under the guise of a rainy day fund. So...(shrug)

If you like it keep it. (thumbsu

I will probably keep it until I need to spend it, so for now I too will describe it as emergency cash savings xD
