Asda customer reveals trolley trick for when you forget a £1 coin or token

Getting to the supermarket and realising you do not have a £1 coin or token for your trolley can make an already painful chore even worse.

As more people become dependent on debit and credit cards, they are less likely to have cash in their pocket.

It then presents a big problem for shoppers if they turn up without a £1 coin.

Luckily, one innovative Asda customer has found the perfect life hack to stop the problem, reports the Liverpool Echo .

The customer shared an image of his trick to Twitter. Alongside the image he said: "Life hack if you ain't got a quid for a trolley."

It involves using the circular part of the key to go into the slot where the coin or token usually goes.

Meaning as long as you have a key of this shape and you remember to take it with your during your next supermarket shop then it'll work.

Since sharing his tip, users have praised him for his idea. @booksandbards said: "This is incredible."

@reginagorrge agreed that the tip work, she said: "Hah I do this I dunno how I discovered it!"

Another wished they've learnt sooner, @grendelsmilf said: "couldn't have told me this yesterday when I had to do a big Aldi shop with nothing but a basket and sheer brute strength."
