Sounds like you will use coins as a weapon....
Machiam final fantasy... Last time can throw gil to inflict damage
My irritation comes when I keep stuffing my coin pouch with coins, gets too heavy in my pocket then I run will drag my berms down.... :s13:

Granted wifey made me sling a kangaroo pouch these days so that this doesnt happen anymore.... but the prejudice stays :s34:

why not??? :s11:
just cannot. but they willing to take coins if u paying by cash.
that said why would i pay cash at kopitiam when the discount is better when i pay via kopitiam card?

my suspicion = sthg to do with how their mgmt see it

my side is old old type hawker centre, so in tat sense they sorta know who we are since - old customers. they are willing again, also limited to quantity. hence we only managed to get rid of the coins over 3 months, the remainign smaller we get rid via NTUC machine, took us a year

the bucket i was referring to..... its those huge bucket where ppl used to store rice ....

Wah so even if you lose, you want the winner to suffer by taking his winnings in coins
Remind me of the joke...
A guy offered a lady $100 for a quickie
It will last as fast as she collect the cash from the floor.
Thinking it will be fast, she accepted the dare only to find out that the guy prepared it all in coins
