I was Gobsmacked - I went into Poundland

[DTCwordfan]

I went into Poundland here in Truro this morning - firstly to use their ATM.

Imagine my surprise when the machine only spat out a £1 coin after I put in my request for funds.

On the receipt was written "The maximum for anything in this is store is £1"

Oh well...

[ChuckFickens]

Duh! That's a fruit machine.

[factor-fiction]

I'd check there wasn't a £1.50 withdrawal fee

[piggynose]

whats an ATM?

[MichaelZZ]

Automatic Teller Machine, otherwise known as a Cashpoint or Hole in the wall.

[redman41]

Poundland is good..............sometimes !!

[sidkid]

Just being a bit pedantic here but a Cashpoint is an Automated Teller Machine(ATM) but an ATM is not necessarily a Cashpoint as Cashpoint is a registered trademark belonging to the Lloyds Banking Group.

[DTCwordfan]

A Lloyds banker or customer amongst our midst!

[joggerjayne]

"amongst our midst" ???

[sidkid]

Ex - Both I'm afraid

[MichaelZZ]

I thought the rhyming slang was "Swiss", not "Lloyds". Oh, I don't know though.

[DTCwordfan]

Swiss or pi-ss-ed?
