Similar ideaI've got one of those enormous whisky bottles. I try to empty it ever couple of years - usually just before Xmas.
I take it down to Sainsbury's and tip it into the Coinstar machine which produces a ticket that you can exchange for cash at the till.
They take 7.5% commission I think but I still end up with £150 or so when I need it most.
