Shall we go for crypto gang
Yeah, the machine reads the chip and you don't have to enter the PIN number.When you say contactless, that just means using a credit/debit card right?
Yeah but also when you pay with your phone you hold it up to the card reader in the same way you would with a card. Is it the same in Japan or is it like China where you just pay through the app?When you say contactless, that just means using a credit/debit card right?
Japan is so different, most people didn’t even HAVE debit cards until the last 5 years, credit cards are paid off in full within a few months mandatorily, and a lot of people use cash apps like PayPay, Linepay etc
I hold my card (or phone) up the the reader. Is that different from you?Yeah but also when you pay with your phone you hold it up to the card reader in the same way you would with a card. Is it the same in Japan or is it like China where you just pay through the app?

Omg is BeFinDa Carlisle actually your fish’s name?
We already have those - Amazon Fresh! I haven't tried one yet.I saw something that I can’t find now about how in the future you might just be able to walk into a store and take whatever you want and it charges you automatically though your phone somehow

That sounds cool but also like someone could pickpocket your phone and also a bunch of expensive items and then leave your phone outside and there’d be no way to catch themWe already have those - Amazon Fresh! I haven't tried one yet.
My friend gave me a tenner for a ticket at the weekend and I was like WHAT IS THIS SHIT
We've just had by far the most expensive weekly shop we've ever done. Almost £90 for the week. Not so long ago it was £55.
Lidl tomatoes are the best. I usually get the vine ones.I've downgraded my tomatoes in Lidl now
For a shop whose model seems to be based on not giving the consumer much choice, they seem to have a huge choice of tomatoes. The ones we usually got are now £3 a tray which seems ridiculous when you can get decent ones for half that price.Lidl tomatoes are the best. I usually get the vine ones.
Please not those awful rubbery tasteless things!!For a shop whose model seems to be based on not giving the consumer much choice, they seem to have a huge choice of tomatoes. The ones we usually got are now £3 a tray which seems ridiculous when you can get decent ones for half that price.
Still, anything is better than something calling itself a 'British salad tomato'. British salad tomatoes really should be in that thread which includes all the shit things about the country.
We only have Prime and Netflix. I suspect we shall keep them.And regarding the general theme of the thread, I'll be cancelling the BritBox subscription when I've finished watching cycle 12 of Britain’s Next Top Model, amd I'm now halfway through cycle 11.
Disney+ will be next. Not planning on giving up Prime or Netflix, though.
