Anynomous Stall

Minasan, do u guys ever seen anynomous stall?? The stall that u dunno the seller and the seller dunno u. I mean that both the seller and the buyers don't see (not blind hoi!!) each other face. So when u want to buy something from the stall, u just take the required item which is mostly food/fruits (e.g. ikan masin, belacan, durian) and then put your money to the provided box (not a steel box!) . Actually, honesty from both side is needed here.

The sellers have to trust the buyers, e.g
1. Buyers will pay to what they take.
2. No one will not take the money from the box.

We have this business system in UBD Fos, at Maths department building, on the 1st floor. I bought a burger and I put $1 to the given container. I dunno who is the owner since he/she was not there. From what I understand, it's sensible to do like that since we're living in Brunei (Abode of Peace, kali la). [Jangan saja yang dijual atu amas, tantu lanyap]

You know the door at the other side of that stall? That's where the makcik sits sometimes when she's free, and would take the money from the container every few hours. The system is kinda awkward but ever since the makcik threatened people that she is keeping count of the food, people fear the stall gone because of just one stupid guy taking the food for free.

Hehe.. why everyone says it's makcik the one sells? Could be pakcik and nenek la.. :-D. I think sellers that spread the rumour actually using CCTV camera to trace the thieves.. :p.

This kind of selling system is at seller own risk. So FBEPS got one too.. maybe by the same person.

Solution: Create burger vending machine!!
