Gatwick - More rip off charges!

photome

Is the OP serious???

A rip off? I dont think so

Gotta be a wind up by the OP if he conciders leaving the trolley rather than returning it to a trolley bay then he's the very reason they've introduced this deposit scheme in the first place. There are plenty of 'real' rip offs like parking without spending time on this!

Just to add - I carry a euro in my wallet just for use at Morrison's, I'm always finding myself without a £1 coin but of course there's limited opportunity for spending euros in the UK so a euro tends to stick around. Somefield however seem have fixed theirs so a euro doesn't fit... why am I contributing to this thread...?

Now that is a rip-off! I think it is because a lot of people are lazy and just put in pound coins, so the machine operators need to keep topping up. Still a rip off though.
Ref. your travel list, I went to Warsaw last weekend and was not over-impressed. The Uprising Museum was superb, the two home-brew bars are excellent, other than that, not particularly stunning.

If you go shopping in France ask for a "jetton" at the supermarket desk.

I thought the point of these charges was to encourage people to return their trollies

25c or a free token isn't going to do that

if they want to do it properly they should make people queue at a desk where they hand over their CC details to be allowed to get a trolley. If they don't return it then they have to pay the full cost of a trolley
