As subject. I will try to use multiple payment methods (mostly 2, sometimes 3, seldom 5) to use up my remaining one or two dollar gift card balance or pay using multiple debit cards to meet the 5 debit card monthly transaction requirement for bank bonus savings criterias like many users on the forum suggested.
And the store workers will keep standing around to see what I am doing like I am trying to do something suspicious and look down at my bag after I am done checking out when I am in fact doing my task as a shopper. I feel like the "ambiguity" this has caused me warrants me a potential psychological consultation which will amount to $200 which is more than all the gift card balances or savings that I get by maxing out the remaining $1 or $2 balance in the gift cards or saving on few dollars with split payment to meet the 5 transaction bank criteria for bonus savings interest and using the HSBC Tap and Get 2% Cashback as my primary debit card payment. I think what I will do in the future instead is to opt for buying 5 one dollar Amazon gift cards online instead to meet the minimum 5x bank transaction requirement for my bank bonus interest rate instead of doing 5x one cent/ten cent/one dollar transactions at the Coles/Woolworths self checkout and then using the sixth debit card to fund the remaining purchase at Coles or Woolworths since that apparently is how you get flagged by the staff??? So how do all you frugal buyers deal with all of this drama?
who cares what other people think
