Do they sell penny sweets any more?

You're actually the second person to suggest that (first was on Mono).

I don't think they qualify as useful, unless I use them to prop up a wobbly table leg or something :-)

You could buy one (1p) and a nail (1p, she says, guessing wildly, or maybe you already have one) and nail it to the wall as a conversation piece.

A couple of cable ties? They always come in handy....

If you can find anything useful for 2p in this town, it'll be lurking in the odds&sods fittings cabinet at Mackays...

You might be able to get something useful for 2p at Gee's.

AFAIK they sell penny sweets, but they cost more than a penny. But I haven't looked for years, I *hope* there's something you can buy for a penny, but I don't know.

Of course, some things are sold by weight, so you could buy a 1/3 of a sweet or ten resistors, or 1/30 of a banana...
