The beggers in London are cheeky sods. I was sitting outside a restaurant on the Southbank on a summers evening when a tramp came up asking for a spare ciggy, I said no, then he asked for spare change, I said no. The cheeky sod then said well you can afford that *pointing at my bottle of wine and nachos*.
I turned around and said listen mate, I cant afford it either, this is all on a credit card. He then muttered some swear words and asked the next table, who also said no. He is probably WAY richer than me. !!!!!.0 -
You could always make a box-sized card saying "50p please" (or whatever the relevant price is) always leave the bottom cellophane on and slip it in, they you don't have to speak to them or even look them in the eye, just hold up the box0

I once had a guy give me a FIVER for a cig... :rotfl: He was so bloody insistant, he kept going on about not being the kind of guy to rip someone off etc :eek:This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0

If someone asks if you have a spare cig, you could always reply..
"now let's see. I have 9 cigs here and guess what, none of them are spare. They are all for me. Now f*ck off and buy your own"
It would be worth getting smack in the gob just to get that off your chest I think.0 -
Plant a couple of these in a cig for next time,0
