Must be nice living in such a huge city that there are multiple stores for everything. Can't even order online instead, since those shops also don't take cash (obviously).

To be fair, I order most products online anyway and there's a big supermarket round the corner for food. When I do venture into London it's great how much faster it is to use the trains, get a pint, pay for food, etc just tapping my phone on everything.

You never buy anything except food and drink?

[–] NuPNuA@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

No, as I said I buy most other stuff, bar clothing, online anyway, or theyre digital products to begin with like games.
