Default Boris - remove this absurd Oyster vs cash cost disparity

On 13 May 2008 David Cantrell wrote in
:

I would stop moaning about Oyster if TfL bothered to put vending
machines at convenient places in south London. Y'know, I bet that
people like Tesco would be happy to have Oystery ticket machines
in their shops (for a small cut of course) so that people could
renew their travelcards or top up their pre-pay balance. It
wouldn't be the first time a large public company had put its
facilities inside supermarkets because it was convenient for their
users - there's a post box inside my local Tesco.


On the other side from this it would be nice if the station vending
machines / shops could take money from an oyster card. Tokyo Suica
cards do this and it is very convenient. (Also great when working,
Suica == travel == expenses!!!)
