Boghead ranter Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 (edited) I mind when ATM machines ( @Jacksgranda ) came out at first, they gave out fivers. ETA - especially when you got your PIN number correct. Edited April 25, 2019 by Boghead ranter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETA - especially when you got your PIN number correct.Some still do. Tesco petrol station at Duloch in Dunfermline certainly does. Last week went to take out £10, it spat out 2 fivers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's the same money but you kinda feel short changed when you get the 2 fivers spat out instead of a tenner! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Tesco Express King Street, Aberdeen still did up to a couple of years ago too. Brilliant stuff whilst being a student. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not a Tesco thing. RBS machines in Dundee do it too. Edited April 25, 2019 by Dele 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 The Sainsbury’s machine in Rosyth lets you take out a monkey but on the screen the highest option is £200. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LincolnHearts Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 People who take a carrier bag full of small packages to the post office which have to be weighed individually and sent by different means of postage are c***s who turn an empty p.o into one with a queue snaking out the door. I only wanted a fucking stamp. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarley Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 The wife was given a $50 voucher to an online retailer (similar to Amazon) as a reward for booking tickets with a well known online ticket company.Wondered why I couldn't redeem the voucher. Checked the small print and I need to spend $1200 before the voucher is applied. TWELVE HUNDRED DOLLARYDOOS?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Australia had hitched a ride with the First World and actually allowed Amazon to open warehouses there? Or is it still Brucesinternetshoppydoo.au ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's no my fault the post office can't staff appropriately 🤷 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old enough to remember when it was 5 & 10 too, and when it changed to 10 & 20 and only having £8.53 in bank and couldn't take out a fiver Kind of sums up Aberdeen (and the world in general), some parts of the city are seeing cash machines up the max amount to £500, used once in error so I can confirm it does work, Yet cash machines in other parts are reintroducing having £5 available for those with less than a tenner to them Edited April 26, 2019 by MEADOWXI 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 On nightshift so it's breakfast time. To be somewhat healthier I've had porridge. Then immediately had two fudges from the fridge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
