How much money do you take with you to school?

[Black_Apalachi]

we got it about 2 years ago and using money was definately easier and quicker . it takes a lot longer too because it's done on a fingerprint thingy so it gets dirty and doesn't work properly and just generally breaks pretty often. using cards which you just swipe in like any other school would've been a lot easier, how was yours done?

Mine was just a sensor thing (they might have swiped it at the tills but it had a sensor system for the doors to gain access to school). That's why they were annoying though because if you forgot your card you couldn't get into school lol and also the fact that you never need money means that you'll probably forget to bring some to top it up at the machine. I don't think it was until I was in like year 10 or 11 when we got them though so I always had money with me and by sixth form we went out for lunch anyway.


OH YEAH AND I'm sure they used to monitor what people were eating and not allow them to get too much junk food or something. Although the vending machines and pretty much all the junk food was long gone by then (nice one Jamie Oliver ;l). I never did this but some kids used to use their free dinners repeatedly at the different food counters (we had three different bars) so they could get more free stuff but the cards stopped that one because it was all on the screen

i spend like 50p a day in the canteen but i just put a few quid on my card every week.

I take enough for the bus. If you take more then you need you get douchebags asking to "borrow" money which they "will pay back".

I do agree, I normally take enough to get 2-3 packs of chewing gum + enough for a drink

Lol we have a card, a machine in the diner and in the main reception to put money on, our school photo is linked to the card and is used as verification when using as it pops up on till
