I guess when you buy pizza?

edit: wait, is this where I'm supposed to have an epiphany that I never have to pay over the phone?

Well when I order food, I call and place the order and hang up. Once the delivery guy is here he gets his 3G card reader and I use Paypass to tap the CreditCard and I'm done...
It's the same with convenience store, I place the call they bring the machine and we're done. I can't remember the last time I used my card over the phone.

Anyway, to each their way.

My cat has one of these. Still can't buy her own food, though.

When lock and key just isn't enough......

Neat tech. Will pass on being an early adopter. I vaguely remember some kind of cancer concerns when it came to those in dogs. Haven't looked to see if that ever went anywhere.

It would somewhat ironic to find yourself using it to pay for chemo.

How do you pay over the phone in Canada?
