Beware the Flybuys

Postby scarecrow » Mon Apr 30, 2012 1:45 pm

Has everyone got their new Flybuys card?

When I got mine I checked to see what I buy the most of. Guess what it was? Sugar.
I always buy from different stores so as not to create suspicion. But, being a dickhead, I always used my Flybuys card. Buying from different stores only stopped immediate suspicion.

And why would anybody care how much sugar I buy? Because it is used by drug dealers to cut their product. And where I live they look out for drugs.

I actually got a checkout chick to give me the once over when I had 8 kg of sugar in the basket. Asking stupid questions that I didn't answer and checking out my eyes etc. FFS this is bullshit.

So, just be aware of putting sugar on your Flybuys. It can be traced.

i kind of reckon your worrying about nothing.

i'd be more worried about a random knock at the door when running the still because someone can smell it than throwing up a red flag at coles buying sugar.

Granulated sugar is never used to cut drugs; the product of choice is glucose powder like glucoden so don't worry yourself. Sugar as also used by confectioners, chocolateers, restaurant owners, chefs and people who like sweet coffee so I wouldn't worry yourself.
