It was great not taking my card to the shop, but, I took my loyalty card, they need to work on that, Costa is onboard.

Double tap, present, pretty much the same effort as my card.

Link did not work but found it on main page.

Jack, Mattee, serious question here......if I, and I am sure countless others, bought a non-apple product e.g. phone, laptop, etc etc we just take it home and use it. Why if an apple user buys a similar apple product do they need to advertise it to everyone with the usual "just bought the new apple......"?

Serious question.

Serious question.
You need to reevaluate your purchasing decisions, try to only buy things that you know you'll enjoy owning, things that will make a difference. And remember you're on a forum about a car.

I like some of their stuff but not all. Weird for someone to accuse me of being some sort of fanboi.

haha, jack is the definition of fanboi, everything they ever release is the greatest thing since sliced bread. It's good to show loyalty, but Big difference between loyalty and fanboi.

Bought a watch, have the iPhone and iPad an old iMac and an old Macbook. I'm really sorry that I'm happy with my purchases, it's obviously annoying to you as you have a need to try to tell me I'm wrong all the time, all of your posts are negative whilst all of mine positive, that's telling.

OK, here's another go, one day you will buy something that under promises and over delivers, when that happens you may feel the need to share it with others.

Serious question.
Why do people feel the need to post in the member's gallery/project sections on here? It's all the same really, some people just like to share things.

This post is the same as all of your posts, schoolboy stuff. Idiotic would be my description, wasting your time chasing after my posts with your negative drivel.

well, kinda. But you don't see people posting new pictures of their cars every time they take them out, or every time they fill them up with V-Power, every time they get them washed and waxed, etc, etc.

Most important though, on the occasions that they do any of the above, they at least don't do so in the style and verbiage of a "regional sales manager" standing at the front of a training room with a powerpoint presentation

99% of this thread is by people just trying to be negative, the three posts about the watch are pretty normal.

Like what? Just give me a question and I'll give you an answer, you won't want to hear it but I'll definitely answer.

I thought you might have given up by now, everything you post I just bat back at you leaving you back in the dunce corner facing the wall.

It's got to be really easy to replace cash and that's the long term goal. But I agree it's worryingly easy, was walking out of Waitrose yesterday and spotted a cake in the discount bin, scan, click, wave my arm, calories

I'm like that too - when I get the munchies, I load up on calories big time. Just did a 21 mile hilly ride - straight to the local cafe for a fat lunch... Swiped the payment there too.

Just as likely in time, only a fool would buy a new terminal that doesn't support the latest payment methods.
