Trying to check out at a convenience store's self checkout was a giant pain if they didn't support contactless. Each time I'd have the ol' flashing siren "Idiot needs help" light come on... and have to wait a good 5-10 min for them to figure out what to do.
Hmm okay, I guess I'll have to look at using my First Tech Visa there then.
