Ya I'm easy about the fuel thing at the moment since I still have a job. Enough regulars know that I get it bulk and have heard me say a million times that I'm happy to refill those stupid little bottles blah blah blah... in my experience in Wellington it takes a while for people to really catch on to anything, if at all. I'm not saying Wellington makes people stupid - but Jet the Roller Derby girl said it best - 'Wellingtonians are the most overcommitted people in the country'. So when people are overcommitted, they'll only show up once in a while, and forget either their gold coins or the fact that someones got it in bulk and they'll go and buy another stupid little bottle.
I'm coming from an environmental perspective on this, the money is irrelevant to me (at the moment) so unless everyone else is coming from the same perspective or at least picks up on it, we will continue to be imbibed by stupid little bottles. I suppose I could make a Koha tin or something and make it more obvious - group owners - perhaps you could put a note on our home page that says GOLD COIN KOHA for fuel, leave your stupid little bottles at home, or something. Oh and the Bond st f&c and vietnamese is all good!
