I would like to spread the word in that community that no-one carries cash anymore. So yelling at me demanding coins simply does not work. But I digress.

Why do supermarkets allow the loitering is another question. I certainly wouldn't want anything to put off my customers.

I'm not sure either, and I'm really conscious of it when I take my kids with me 😳 It's like, I know you've got problems but don't. talk. to. my. kids when you're off your head mate, or we will have a problem.

I think they start playing classical or Telstra hold music by the entrance to discourage loitering.
