Jmothecat2 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Supermarket rotisserie chicken. Smells brilliant in the shop but is tasteless, overcooked and has the texture of wet cotton wool when you actually eat it. I always think they are overpriced as well. They over cook them as they need to be so careful with poultry so they cook them considerably past the legal minimums, then tend to keep them in a holding oven which dries them out. Much better just buying a chicken and sticking it in an oven for an hour and a half yourself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philpy Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I was in Tesco a few weeks ago getting some beers, and I was hungry and as I was walking past the deli bit I saw 10 chicken nuggets reduced to 30p. I ate 3, the rest went in the bin. Dry and hard. (Fnnarr) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once saw someone in the Lochee odeon eating a whole cooked chicken they had bought in Willie Lows next door. They are fine for soup and sandwiches, I wouldnt serve it up for Sunday lunch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizfit Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I used to like tearing into one of them when hungover. Tasty, yet meets hangover requirements of simple flavours and less than 3 ingredients. We had someone in our college class who regularly would walk to Tesco, purchase one and spend the afternoon in class picking away at it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiskychimp Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 When politicians discuss brexit as a divorce. " If you have problems in your marriage you don't walk in saying "we'll do it my way or I'll walk out"" Firstly it's not a divorce. Secondly, that is a perfectly acceptable relationship position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weirdcal Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 People who have contactless cards and always insert their card into the reader. With me it was a slight crack that stopped contactless from working. Pain in the hole 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmothecat2 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 I know someone who refuses to use contactless as the transactions take a couple of days to show on online banking. Why this is a problem I don't know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jmothecat2 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 I find it mildly annoying when I try to use contactless but it's a contactlessless machine and I've just put my card at the top of the reader like an idiot.I also overheard an older woman in a shop ask the guy 'are you touch ready?' He looked at her curiously and she pointed to her card. He nodded and she said 'I'll just go ahead and touch it then.' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why this is a problem I don't know. That's my reasoning.

Kennboy1978 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 I normally just tap my wallet on the card reader. Went to the local shop for stuff and later Aldi. My usual wallet tap worked fine in the local shop but wouldn't work at all in Aldi. I forgot I still had my wife's credit card in my wallet.I'm sure I read that if the machine detects two or more contactless payments it won't work. Which one was used for the local shop ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
