Have you ever been so poor you paid for your grocery items in all coins?
I bought a 6 pack of ramen, a pack of hotdogs and buns in all coins at the self checkout. I didn't want anyone to get stuck behind me.

Fuck other people, their dumb fat asses can afford to stand for an extra 2 minutes. I always use the normal check out lines. Self check outs are a pain to use.
SW-User
@SW-User I prefer self checkouts because if I have very little money I can watch my spending easier. I can also decide what to put back easier too.

@suchaslife If I got a secondary job or quit a certain thing I'd be better off.

How do you pay for the service that lets you come here to ask these questions?

@Recluse I come on via my phone. I'm not on very often. Usually pop in every once in awhile. I do have a job I just don't make a whole lot.
SW-User
Yes, I have. It's hard to live that way.
SW-User
Yes it happened.

When I was younger yup. I used to be a mystery shopper which you will get paid 5 or 10 bucks to eat some fast food for free then do a 20 min write up about it.
