    Imagine going round doing a big shop then stropping like a 2 year old rather than just going to an actual check out.

    Presumably they needed the 70 quids worth of food they'd just spent time walking up and down the aisles collecting, so walking out and leaving it all would just mean they would have to go to another supermarket and waste more of their weekend doing the 'big shop' all over again.

    Why? What's wrong with using cards, like normal people do?

    Luddites don't know cards have been invented, let alone how to use them.

    I agree with your latter post but nothing wrong with paying cash anywhere or at least shouldn't be
    I try to go through checkouts as it keeps people in jobs.

    That's the thing he says it was only self checkout that were open. I know when I will go Asda at 7'30 in morning in Colne as I do every Tuesday there won't be anyone on the tills unless you ask staff and then they try to put you through self check outs

    Each to their own, but it seems bizarre to me. Contactless is so easy that I've almost given up carrying cash these days.

    Surely it would have been if he'd gone to a staffed checkout, rather than the self service one?

    Of course they are making it easy, it's to get the unknowing to use contactless payments so you can be tracked and categorised then all the data will be used against you in the future.

    Mark my words, you'll be sorry.

    That's stands up as a conspiracy theory with Elvis being alive and the twin towers being a us govt plot.
