Re: have you ever cheated at the self checkout??
i peel the manager special barcodes off the discounted meat and put them on the high priced steaks

the key point here is matching up the weights of discounted meat and the high quality meat as close as possible or you risk setting off the weight check during self checkout
 Quoting: CCP in TN


Just hold your fingers over the barcode, pretend to scan it, and put it in your cart.


If they catch you at it before you leave the store, claim you scanned it. Tell them you dont hear well and couldnt tell your beeper from anyone elses.

If they don't catch you before you get out of the store, enjoy.


For a long time I considered stealing from stores wrong.
Then I realized their whole business is to steal from me.

No. That is called stealing.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80601076


Who gives a shit?

If you steal from someone who has robbed you all your life, it's still stealing, but who in their right fuckin mind cares?

Retail stores buy a product wholesale for a low price, and then sell it for more than they paid for it. All while conspiring to prevent you from using the wholesale source yourself. PARASITIC MIDDLEMEN.

And this is one of the fatal flaws of capitalism.

Anyone who steals from a grocery store is a stupid person. I won't explain it because stupid people won't get it and the ones that do already know.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15895702


Why do grocery stores have different prices for different people? Is it ok to overcharge one and give a discount to another?

No. I have a friend who can never go to walmart again because of that. And she had a friend who got busted doing it too and her friend tried to go back into walmart afterwards with a mask on. The cameras detected her and they threw her out.

 Quoting: Ramos


Totally legal

You can eat anything you want in a store.

Cruise

It isn't "stealing" until you try to leave the store with it without paying for it.

If you eat it, they can know you did it and even have you on camera eating it, but dont have the evidence it takes to make an arrest.


It's a freebee.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81042018


Keep telling yourself that but you saying and thinking it does not make it true. Taking property from someone else is stealing. Management deciding not to do anything about you eating food meant for purchase while inside the store is probably due to it being more trouble than it is worth and the food you have contaminated won't be returned anyway. In any case, I recommend you "test" your interpretation of "legal" and keep doing this at every grocery store. Bring the whole family for a grocery meal to drive home your point.

Re: have you ever cheated at the self checkout??
I ALWAYS use the self-checkout, and stand there
and scratch my head, and scratch my ass, and
scratch my balls, at which time the girl
comes over and says,
"Are you having trouble, sir?"
I say, "How does this work?"

Then the gal proceeds to check me out,
just like she would if she were a cashier,
which she is.

WORKS EVERY TIME.

Re: have you ever cheated at the self checkout??
There was one time I went to Target and bought some items including a bottle of diet coke. As I walked out into the parking lot and got to my car, I just happen to look at my receipt for some reason and did not see the diet coke on it. I stopped and looked at it more closely and could not find the diet coke on the receipt. I thought for a second, "Oh big deal, a $1.87 bottle of diet coke". But I then said "No, I've never stolen anything in my life and now that I am aware that I did not pay for something by accident or maybe because the machine just didn't scan it properly, I gotta go back in and pay for it".

I put the rest of the items in my car and walked back inside of Target to one of the cashier lines that was open at the moment rather than the self-checkout. She scanned the DC and I paid for it and went home. Stealing is something that only trash do. I'm not one of them.

She didn't deserve to have to pay the difference

But if it is the store itself.....whatever you can get away with you should do, They have robbed you all along. PARASITES.
