Shoppers have come up with a genius hack to unlock trolleys without £1

Supermarket shoppers have shared a perfect hack to get a trolley even when you don’t have a pound! 

With face masks now being mandatory in supermarkets, the list of things to remember for your weekly shop is getting longer by the minute.

Mask, reusable bags and a pound coin – too much to remember for anyone that! 

One of them is going to give and with not wearing a mask landing you a hefty £100 fine you better hope it’s the pound coin and you struggle piling everything into a basket instead. 

Some savvy shoppers have come up with a genius trick of using two 20p pieces together and it works ‘perfectly’.

Others are wary with one user writing “Tried this and it works but I couldn’t get my 20ps back [it] jammed the trolley.”

Others use their house keys while some use the key off a corned beef tin. 

You can get reusable key rings that work just as well – or just don’t forget your quid! But we can’t all be that organised, can we?!
