  1. I believe you can get a full tax invoice through the app if you set it up. https://www.7eleven.co.th/promotion/allmember/1658-etax?
  2. He is already rabid, a rabid anti vaxxer. But your point is good. @Red Phoenix would you go and get your rabies vaccine? Or would you just accept your impending slow, painful and unpleasant death?
  3. This thread is nonsense. I have been to several stores over the last few days and got receipts in each of them. Has any one else apart from the OP been refused a receipt? It just makes Steven100's conspiracy even more ridiculous.
  4. What utter tripe. Have you seen the tiny little square of paper the receipts get printed on? What a ridiculous assertion. Dhanin Chearavanont is saving 20-30 baht per day per store (1,000 baht???? Get real) on paper, even though they haven't stopped giving receipts. Been to two 7-Elevens today and I got receipts in both. And Dhanin Chearavanont is to blame for the price of your coffee?? So tell me, if they are stopping tiny squares of paper to get richer why did they invest in manufacturing of recycled plastic bags only to give them away for free? No one would complain if they didn't give bags as everyone else stopped (and so did they until they could set up manufacturing). Any idea Mr Business Genius?
  5. So if it was in 1998 it would have been based on the claims of Andrew Wakefield, right? He claimed a link between the MMR jab and austism. He said parents should not give their children the MMR jab because of this risk but instead give separate vaccines (that he could recommend). Problem 1: he had a study group of 12 children. Too tiny to be meaningful in any way shape or form. Problem 2: it was mostly anecdotal evidence. Problem 3: It turned out he was being paid by lawyers who were preparing a lawsuit against the MMR vaccine manufactures. Problem 4: He had personally filed a patent for a rival vaccine. Problem 5: No other scientist could replicate his findings. At all. It was a monumental fraud. Maybe when this came to light it was when your documentary was pulled as it was full of lies, holes, and conflict of interest and could therefore not go out to the public. I am sure the documentary makers had good intentions, just as Private Eye magazine did as they picked it up and I have the utmost respect for that publication. It eventually turned on Wakefield as did the medical establishment once his fraud came to light. It should also be noted that when his claims came to light people were genuinely concerned - who wouldn't be? As a result public confidence in the MMR vaccine plummeted as did usage, far below the 95% mark generally needed for herd immunity (some reports say as low as 80%). Weirdly enough this led to outbreaks of measles, hospitalisations and deaths from what was previously a very well controlled disease. Finally, The Lancet fully retracted his paper. The General Medical Council found him guilty of serious professional misconduct and struck him off the medical register. He can no longer practice medicine in the UK. Yes, I followed this case closely firstly in Private Eye, but it was all a fraud. Your documentary was pulled because it was false and the production company (and broadcaster) would have been sued to oblivion. Good intentions in the investigation, but no way could it be broadcast once the fraud came to light. I hope that helps explain it for you.
  6. Because they started from nothing and have grown in to a huge conglomerate with operations in 20 countries across many different industries. Or is it because they are cutting back on tiny paper receipts? Can you explain?
  7. Wow, they ask you if you want a receipt and if you say yes you get one? What happens if you say no - you don't get one? That sounds like some kind of witchcraft.
  8. Ok, fair enough. Just so often people here make judgements based on a headline and without reading the article...
  9. Did you not even bother looking at the post? The are images and a video of it crashing nose first at 90 degrees. How the hell would they have landed it on a beach when it was clearly completely out of control?
  10. Ha ha ha, good one! You can come out now and admit you are just a parody account as surely no one can be so arrogant, gullible and deluded. Do you go to bed at night chanting "USA! USA!"?
  11. And no unvaccinated people have ever died - amazing!
  12. Well done, investor of the year!! British Airways? British Aerospace? Probably both decent calls, I'm glad you didn't stick your money in Boeing, phew! But as investor of the year you would know better - you are so clever and wise. I only wish I had your investor knowledge and skill and could boast about it on an anonymous forum.
  13. Well this thread degenerated in to off-topic pathetic childish bickering quite quickly. Grow up.
  14. Oh dear oh dear, poor Cameroni has really been shown up in the replies. Imagine posting a link to an article that actually says the opposite of what you claim because you haven't bothered to read it. What an own goal, but don't worry, you are not the first MAGA to link to something you haven't read and I doubt you'll be the last. Headlines are all we need, right?
