[Loonerty]

They do have a DTV frequency though don’t they?

Yeah they do

pays for stuff at self serve checkouts in lots of silver coinage

Don't see what's so bad about this... good way to get rid of loose change and he's not inconveniencing a checkout chick who would rather chat to her mate than scan your rewards card.

Yes I too was struggling to see what was wrong with that? Using coins at a self serve checkout, what an odd and desperate thing to have a crack at someone about.

It's reprehensible behaviour glen, use your small change to inconvenience the workers instead.

Ah, there's an interesting story behind this nickel. In 1957, I remember it was, I got up in the morning and made myself a piece of toast. I set the toaster to three - medium brown.

I’m not talking about a small amount. A large amount and he emphasised doing it to annoy people and hold up the line.

Meh, it's not like there's only one self serve checkout.

If you've got that many coins it's the only way to use it

Unless you deposit them into an atm like I did last week. Since I never carry coins around with me

That's pretty handy! Tbh I haven't used an ATM in probably 6 months. Probably on get $20 cashout when buying something once every few weeks so never really have cash on me

It was first time I had used an atm in a fair while too.

I think the coin and cash deposit ones are normally inside the branch so only open business hours but still really handy

Do you listen to triple J?

I do not. I don’t really listen to much radio tbh.

Do you listen to new music?

I do. But I find it on iTunes rather than the radio.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Haha. Hope she retires because of this.

A known dimwit who hates all things Australia, has been known to turn up to work in full Hawthorn kit, pays for stuff at self serve checkouts in lots of silver coinage, and has watched the last 4 grand finals hundreds of times, or so he says.

Not far off being a certified window licker.

Ha they’re getting closer Chappyuk
Good ol Wiggum

iTunes? Slow down grandpa.

 

[Spanish Sahara]

iTunes

 

[Cruyff14]

I don't mind iTunes. Only really use it because of my phone though.

 

[Jatz]

iTunes? Slow down grandpa.

Meh, it’s provides me suggested music when I feel like something new. I’ve got something like 2000 songs in my library so rarely listen to anything that’s not in my catalogue.

 

[Jatz]

Isn’t triple J hipster music?

You mean like Spotify does?

You really do nothing to convince me you aren't a 70 year old in a 25 year old's body.

 

[Jatz]

Yep. I’ve had Spotify previously, I prefer iTunes though.
