Yes! I have the same problem Aysa. Annoying isn't it.
Someone said the other day that eventually they will be replacing all old notes the same.

Yes, that's happened to me too. Maybe if we all ironed a crease in them before we hand them over - the next one could do the same until eventually all the new notes will be worn in

Re: The New Fivers

I like to keep a fiver tucked in either my mobile phone case, in a slot, and/or in my bus pass wallet. When I wanted the one in the phone case, it wouldn't pull out by using fingers. So I got a pair of tweezers. It still put up a fight! Too slippery.
