Bookies Shop Question

[Lars]

OK, I'm going to sound like a complete knob here, but here goes.:$:$ When you're in a bookies shop, how exactly do you "take the price" sort of thing? I'm pretty sure you ask when you're handing over the slip? I'm used to betting online and have only set foot in a bookies a few times, and that's been like 5 minutes before the race so I just usually go off the SP (it's worked in my favour 90% of the time). Tomorrow I'm probably out all day and with only cash in hand I'll be off to the bookmakers earlyish. I dislike bookmakers shops as a rule as at my local one I always seem to get ID'd by the same bloody woman! I mean I look 18/19 anyway so I don't mind the actual fact of getting ID'd (and it's their job). I'd have just thought that the same bloody woman would remember on the fourth/fifth time:lol:lol. Especially as people who go in this bookmakers are 40+ Thanks for any advice. Lars

Re: Bookies Shop Question Yeah, when you hand the slip over just ask for the price. Don't write it on yourself, the cashier will do that and initial it...
