This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Mr fancy pants here with full euro coins.

I treasure my red plastic €0.50 coin replica more than my life.

I put in a 2€ and look down on other shoppers

You guys can use €0.50 coins?! Over here in Australia it’s either a $1 or $2 coin. I wish I could chuck a 50¢ piece in the trolley.

Why not just 3D print a few more?

[–] Damage@feddit.it 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why 3d print them when the same supermarket gives them out for free?

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wait, they do? Why would they do that?

[–] Damage@feddit.it 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Eh, 'cause otherwise people will have to exchange money for coins, sometimes people don't have notes to exchange, etc... Seems like retaining the token is incentive enough to return the cart....

Why not just ask for another one?

[–] Damage@feddit.it 3 points 2 years ago

It's more effort
