This is a question Expensive Mistakes

coopsweb asks "What's the most expensive mistake you've ever made? Should I mention a certain employee who caused 4 hours worth of delays in Central London and got his company fined £500k?"

No points for stories about the time you had a few and thought it'd be a good idea to wrap your car around a bollard. Or replies consisting of "my wife".

This is a QotW answer Chip & pin
I was paying for a meal in Pizza Express (around the time when chip & pin machines were first introduced). The waitress handed me the machine and I tapped in my pin number. Didn't realise that the gratuity option was first. ...I almost left a £8136 tip!

...oops! Now you know my pin.
