thursday 1 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I have what we call an Octopus card in my wallet. It's a wireless smart card. I use it to pay for everything. Transport, groceries, convenience store stuff. EVERYTHING at anywhere that accepts it. I link it to my credit card which loads it automatically when it goes -negative value. The cash is spent and it gets paid for in the monthly credit card bill. So in effect there is 30 days interest free cash. I don't handle cash as far as possible. Money is dirty dirty.

guzzlers-baps 0 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Same here, just the train. There are more and more places now where youcan use this though. Interesting that it is a Docomo technology - even when Softbank or Au use this, they have to pay docomo fees, or so I have been led to believe. That's why they aren't shouting about it as much as docomo. Link to post Share on other sites
