Have you actually seen or used a £100 note in person? (infosec.pub)

It exists, but how many people in Scotland have this in their wallet? Even though it's a real denomination that's in circulation and issued by the Bank of Scotland, what's the probability of stores accepting that when paying for something that's adjacent to the note's value (i.e. a £90 purchase) as they definitely have change for it.

Yes! I worked the checkouts at a supermarket as a teenager and someone wanted to pay for their shopping with one. I was required to call a supervisor over if anyone wanted to pay with fifties anyway, so I did that, but it all seemed to check out fine. Or, at least, my supervisor was happy with it, and if there was anything questionable then it wasn't my problem. I don't remember anything about the customer, so I guess there must have been nothing too unusual about them.
