Garage in Lincolnshire accepts Euros

Every time I come back from mainland Europe I have loads of coins left over that I never get changed back into pounds.

I always forget to take them with me on the next trip! Over a period of time they had accumulated in the pot to about €60.

I discovered a garage in Welbourn near Lincoln that accepts Euros for everything from fuel to repair & maintenance to sweets & cigarettes. So I used up those coins to fill my car up :)

    So you pay for your €60 three times?

    Once to get it in the first place. Once (at god knows what exchange rate!) to pay the garage with it. And once to get it for your next trip.
