Depends which album cover

When the last bag of crisps in a multipack is attached the the bigger bag.

Also: when they say on the news "this matters" or "why does it matter?" You're not writing an essay, give the audience some credit.
 
Ladies, and I use the term loosely, going out in their pyjamas!

Not only it is INDECENT, but do they have NO self respect?

You are meant to raising a family, but there you are, squeezing into your nasty pink pyjamas with a meaningless slogan splashed all over the front and your leopard print slippers. Buy a coat dear, things can't be all bad, judging by the amount of Greggs falling out your mouth.
 
People who enter competitions online but put a sob story in the comments as if a battle for the most tearjerking yarn is the entry mechanism.

Its a raffle Sandra no one gives a shit that your three legged dog has gone blind and misses going on camping adventures with his mummy

Take an empty box with you and say ‘got to get the last post’ hurriedly then bin the box when you are round the corner
 
There really should be some sort of schedule devised for those of us who don't want to mingle with acquaintances when running simple errands. Life is too short trying to think of something benign to say to someone just because they live four feet away.

I saw it for the first time in a Sainsbury's here at the weekend. I saw people doing something with receipts, but thought it was to do with validating parking and walked straight out. Then I was grabbed on the shoulder (I had earbuds in so wouldn't have heard anything) and reprimanded.

I kind of feel that the onus should be on them to prove that I didn't pay, rather than me to prove that I did.
 
You know how you can make sure people have paid, Tesco? Having a member of staff sat at a checkout, scanning items through and then taking payment at the end :)

Thankfully I live in an area where the local patrons are trusted, for now.
 
Yes, I'm thrilled with not having to interact with anyone in a supermarket. But I refuse to believe there isn't a better way to prevent shoplifting.
 
It’s like they brought in self service so they could fire loads of staff, and then suddenly realised YEARS later that it would increase theft, so now introduced a new way of monitoring people.

It’s almost as though humans were the better option after all!

Although I do much prefer self service myself now of course - they could just have kept on the extra staff to monitor the process.

Maybe they’ll invent a machine to monitor the monitoring barriers now?
 
I am not sure I understand. Why do you need to scan a receipt? To prove you have paid? :confused:
 
I've never had that, but the self scanning machine? Total bullshit. Last time I used one, once everything was packed some poor staff member had to fish out FORTY-ONE items and re-scan them to prove I hadn't stolen anything. It took a good extra 15 minutes while I stood there desperately trying not to stare at her awkwardly as she messed up my organisation.
 
If they want to stop shoplifting they just need to upgrade all their self checkout machines to the ones that have ultra sensitive bagging areas.

I was routinely nicking something on pretty much every shopping trip, but then my local Waitrose and Sainsbury's branches both changed their machines and now anything that 'accidentally' doesn't scan gets noticed the moment it's in the bagging area and I have to be all OH MY GOODNESS DID THAT NOT SCAN? :evil:

Surely the majority of shoplifting is by petty chancers like me, rather than folk shoving packs of bacon down their trousers and the like
 
I don't think I've once used a self checkout without having at least one unacceptable item in bagging area error since the very first time I used one in probably about '06.

Omg am I the boomer?

Was this a regular self service till, or a SmartShop / Scan & Go vibe? I've been SmartShop at the big Sainsbury's for ages, no matter how much I'm going in for, and the four or five times I've been required to have a re-scan, they've never had to do more than about 12 items :shock:
