You'll need to go back a few posts to find the real answer.

Mate of mine slabbed a floor in a posh house with stone and he used old pennies. grade something listed. Old skool way of doing it. So, good on you!I use two pence pieces, just the right width for a tile joint. Pull them out when the tile cement is set enough to hold the tiles. Works a treat and costs nowt
Must admit I was tempted to do the same, though I don't know what coin I would have settled on, maybe 1 French cent (100th of a Euro) as they are small, like an old half new pence piece.
The only thing with the plastic cross pieces is that if a tile isn't exactly straight for some reason you can turn the cross piece sideways on so that you put two legs in the gap, which is just a fraction wider than one leg used the normal way on.
Haven't explained that very well, but the cross section of each leg of a 2mm spacer isn't square, it's rectangular, which can be handy. Not all tiles are exactly the same dimensions and when using narrow grout lines, which do look so much better/professional, you sometimes need to be a little bit more fussy.
From the tone of some posts here I get the feeling that I am in a bit of a minority enjoying tiling.
I never get tired of having a look at the kitchen tiles while waiting for the kettle to boil!

It got cancelled at the last minute. We have decided to get all the work done we think it needs and go from there

This lockdown is doing mi biscuit in. Feel like an open prisoner. Just thankful for small mercies as I’m not in Wales.
