Where To Pick Up One Of The New Five Pound Notes

The brand new polymer five pound notes have been released today. You can dip them in your brew, although fuck knows why you'd want to.

Or maybe you just want to test how strong they are, like Piers Morgan did this morning? But please remember that, unlike Piers, you're probably not ridiculously overpaid and you'll be tearing up your own money.

The new fivers, featuring a cigar-less Winston Churchill, are being placed into cash machines in six major cities today and will eventually work their way around the country, replacing the paper notes, which will remain in circulation until May next year.

If you just can't wait to get your hands on one of the new fivers, then you're in luck because ITV have written a handy list of locations you can get one today.
