It's called being sociable, if people communicated more maybe we'd all live happier lifestyles

If you go to a swimming pool and a man is drowning, you let the life guard save him, you don't do it yourself. Which is why you let the cashier do what they are paid to do and scan your items

Of you could stop being a tight fisted theiving cunt and pay the correct amount for what you're buying?

Because you dont need to enter your pin number to pay so scallys were getting loads of fuel with nicked cards. That was the case around here anyway.

You go to all that effort, Possibly being caught and humilliated and even a criminal record, For the sake of 9 fucking cookies?
Some people suprise me.

You have to enter your pin number before it will let you fuel up, Depending on what type of card you have it restricts the amount you can have, how else are you going to pay for the fuel without putting your pin in???

The problem with pay at pump is they limit the size of the transaction to £50. Now that was OK a year ago when it cost me less than £50 to fill my car.

Not at my local tescos, you put your card in wait a minute then it allows you to fill up without ever asking for a pin number, theyve been taped up for over a year now though.

Tesco ones are shit! Alway breaking, take about 5minutes to register a scanned item, usually complain that the item hasn't been put in the bag even when it's the only thing in the bag. Absolutely pointless bastard things!

Yip, have to enter your pin, would be exploited a bit if you didn't.

people might steal but tbh most of the theiving gets done no were near the things, and think about it they do save money they only need one person whaching it and effectively have 4 extra tills saving on 3 peoples wages.
not to mention the security people in the office whatch them on the monitors all the time.
