#150905 not sure how old this thread is but...

i used to have one when i was little and lived in newport
my nan and grandad had one for a while
my best mate luke had one

it wasnt a "coin slot" in the tv tho.. ours was like a little box behind the tele that had a lcd on it to say howmuch money you put in it

and i think lukes one was one that was outside, so you would just stick a quid in everytime you wanted to watch the tele

i think a pound lasted most of the day :)

used to do the same with the gas and electric

but you have to buy tokens and put them in the meter.

the one weve got now doesnt have tokens, it has like a key type thing, kinda like a USB stick.

pay for your gas/ electric at the garage, then plug it in to the slot thing at home :)

#150909 hahaha

yeah

he's called the gas man :lol:

they do meter readings and stuff

same with the electric and tele

every on quart i think?
and i think thats like.... every 3 months?

i know some people who blag it tho. specially in the ghetto areas.
there is this dude who managed to rig his coin thing so the money just fell out everytime :)

pretty sure he gripped all his gas tickets on the sly aswell

naughty :hehe:
