I was packing my shopping prior to escaping from the shop just now and the 'woman inside the machine' kept saying, ' Don't forget your change. Cash is dispensed below the scanner ' Blumming stupid woman' I was thinking ' I paid with a card'
I could stand it no more, so looked down to see had someone else left money in the change chute,,,,,,,,,,and there was the £50 cash-back I'd just asked for.

Svejk, you do know that it's not a real woman, don't you?
The moral of the story is that nagging is good for you
she is a right old nag that wummin..I shout back at her all the time..there is NOT an unexpected item in baggage area..that's my purse !!!
The voice in the machine does my head in. I have been known to swear at the machine - usually when it rejects my freshly printed paper money.

I didn't know you could get cash back from the nagging machine.

I'm not that thick, tilly. (quite)
I once found 200 pounds lying in an ATM ..I was just about to take it into the bank when I saw a red faced puffing racing wummin chasing up the road....I waited until I knew for sure when she headed for the machine grief stricken ..then stepped forward and asked had she forgotten this ? Thought she was going to hug me to death when she grabbed me...
I didn't say you were thick........just slightly deluded.:-)

I'm always muttering to her myself. Usually along the lines of, 'Oh, shut up, you stupid woman'. Mad innit?
>>>I didn't know you could get cash back from the nagging machine

In Asda & Morrison's, Tilly, but not in Tesco. (I don't think Sainbury's do it, bu I might be mistaken).

I left £30 at an Asda express checkout - but I go it back though!

Mind you, I scream at people on AB. Can't repeat any of that. ;)
I get cross with the escalator voice, ' Use the handrail whilst travelling.'
'Please push your trolley off the walkway.'

Found a tenner in the Cashpoint and the Checkout. Both times I asked the nearest person was it theirs. And what do you know, both times it was. Wasn't that lucky?
and that one in the lift at the hossie..does she not realise we CAN count !!
Thanks, Chris. I do tend to shop at Sainsbury's. Never noticed a cash back option.
The Tesco machines in my usual little Tesco keep saying Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas, must be driving the poor staff mad as right to the side of the manned checkouts!
I arrived at a cash point once and found £200 hanging out of it.
Popped into bank and handed It to staff. They said we will trace owner. I said its whoever was prior to me, check the machine. I had to then remind them to take my card details. I do wonder if they just didn't keep the money, they did not seem to bothered.

I'm getting old, too. I have no idea what that photo has to do with cash machines. :-(
