• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

The answer from you will be yes every time and that's fine.
What right do you have to dictate to those who don't want a receipt to make them have one?
Not everyone is the same and thinks the same way. Live and let live.

:lol: hang on, where I have i said that people have to have a receipt, I'm saying the question should not be asked.

Err.
How do they know whether you want one or not unless they ask?
You don't want them to ask therefore they'll give everyone a receipt because if you have your way they won't ask the question.

No, the difference is that you didn't like the poster calling him a name because you thought he was all cool and edgey filming himself being a dick. You don't like being politely asked about a receipt, so name calling is justified in your eyes.

Well I think you have taken it the wrong way, there is a difference. Like if I was moaning about a delivery being late from Amazon, and i said they are a bunch of bloody wankas, it's pretty obvious that I don't mean every delivery driver from Amazon is a wanka, yet If i said one individual was a wanka, it would be pretty obvious of the insult.

The question should not be asked, putting the onus onto the customer, pretending to do their bit to save the planet. I bet Martin Lewis would go potty over this, If I brought it, to his attention.

I go in and do my shopping and when I get to the till I don’t want a receipt.

What should they do?

Is the answer call them a wanka and walk out?
 
Even the self serve checkouts in Asda ask if you want a receipt at the end, that filthy computer is such a wanka! :D Can't remember the last time I pressed the YES button, saves me a load of bother not needing to do a wallet receipt cleanout every few months.

For me, the only time I'd ever want a receipt anywhere, would be if I'd bought something reasonbly expensive and usually electrical. Saying that, most things in that category have come from Amazon during the last 10 years.

Is there a Moon over Marin Lewis?

For me personally, I would get a receipt every time, when getting a lot of items, I think so far this year been overcharged at least ten times, once for a rack of ribs, which was triple scanned, rather than twice. First thing you get asked, have you got a receipt?

I can understand why some people think it's no big deal, but it is? Basically they should say, would you like to waiver your consumer rights.

Four pages on the least controversial issue ever.

It's worth discussing though surely? As I pointed out earlier, you used to get a bag for free with your goods, then they brought in a 5p charge to discourage plastic bag use, now in some shops they charge 30p for a small plastic one.

I think, unless people call this out, it can only lead one way, and I think it will not be to the benefit of the average consumer.

As I have said previously these aldi top brass, or doing this rubbish with a token gesture trying to save the planet, to the detriment of the customer.

They have literally hundreds of the paper magazine, scattered all over the shop, and I imagine one copy is worth at least 500 paper receipts, so I think to aldi top brass, don't break my balls over a bloody receipt, when you are literally wasting paper in front of my eyes. Ahem you bloody wankas. 8-)
 
Someone asked me the other day if I wanted a receipt

I didnt so I said no

However I am fairly certain had I wanted one and said yes then they would have provided it

Four pages... four!
