[–] gustofwind@lemmy.world 30 points 8 months ago (4 children) Not everyday but every time I go shopping Enter in cheaper fruits/vegetables at the self checkout if someone is watching and you can’t shoplift Cosmic crisp apples at 3.50 a pound? I’ll just pretend they’re shitty 1.50 a pound apples instead (: permalink fedilink source hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] bamboo@lemmy.blahaj.zone 37 points 8 months ago This is how I got my PS4 for $3.50/pound permalink fedilink source parent [–] CMDR_Horn@lemmy.world 18 points 8 months ago (2 children) Self checkout just confuses me so much, I'm prone to mistakes.

This flaw is the reason why my wife always reads checkout bills right after leaving cash register. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] MutilationWave@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 8 months ago I'd say they average one mistake per $150 in my experience. Double scanning stuff happens. They don't seem to be trained in which fruits and vegetables are which, so they can easily hit the wrong thing and charge you double. permalink fedilink source parent [–] not_woody_shaw@lemmy.world 14 points 8 months ago At my Lidl they put the cheap pink salmon cans on the same shelf intermixed with the more expensive red salmon, so if you just grab a few without looking closely you'll accidentally get some of the expensive ones. So scan the cheap one repeatedly while putting the others in the bag. permalink fedilink source parent [–] NateNate60@lemmy.world 11 points 8 months ago (1 child) Everything is 4011.
