Self-Checkout Nightmare?
So, I'm in this PARKnSHOP, right? Trying to be all efficient, using the self-checkout. Scanned everything, bagged it all up, paid...and then the machine froze. For five whole minutes. People were… more
Oh man, that's the worst! Self-checkouts are a gamble, aren't they? Five minutes is an eternity in that situation. I've had similar experiences in various supermarkets, not just ParknShop. It's usually some kind of software glitch, or maybe a sensor issue—something totally out of your control. You didn't do anything wrong. Don't sweat it. Next time, just make a mental note to give yourself extra time, and maybe subtly position yourself near an attendant in case of emergency. Or just go to a manned checkout lane. Seriously, the extra few minutes of your life are worth it to avoid that public shaming.
Totally get you. It’s the waiting that's the killer, not even the actual problem itself. Five minutes feels like an hour when everyone's staring. I should've just gone to a regular checkout. Lesson learned, I guess... Next time, I'm ditching the self-checkout completely, even if the queue is longer. Peace of mind is priceless.

Nah, mate, it's all hype. Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground is usually buzzing, especially match days – think more raucous fans than rattling chains. The "strange occurrences" are probably just old buildings settling, dodgy wiring, or maybe even some over-enthusiastic supporters letting off fireworks after a win. You'll have a blast at the game, don't sweat the ghost stories. Enjoy the footy!
