I go to the high street maybe once a month to go to WHSmiths to get a magazine I can't get in my corner shop. My wife parks right outside on the double yellows, i go in, pick up said mag and pay and leave. If a traffic warden comes she smiles, explains she picking me up and i'm a cripple and they usually let her wait for a couple of mins. Big friendly smiles, polite conversation, low cut tops and a large cleavage on show always helps. 2 -3 mins tops and then were gone. I go to the high street properly maybe 2 times a year, wifes birthday and christmas. Any other time I shop online. Its cheaper, easier and I have a bad back and don't have to go anywhere.
I am on incap benefit. I don't have money to waste on fuel, parking charges and shop overheads and therefore every penny I can save helps us as a family.
