To dump my shopping at Morrisons checkout

Bought a few thing in store, used a small trolley as the basket puts a strain on my shoulder and went to the self service. Got stopped from using the till I first went to as I apparently had to use a till with a larger area for my shopping (even though I only had a few bits), got redirected to machine labelled cash only - no good for me, then told to wait for a free space on trolley tills.
Scanned first item fine, second item fine, third item "remove from bagging area and wait for assistant" - waited, cleared by assistant, fourth item "remove from bagging area and wait for assistant" Angry and fed up, FFS I could have gone through a normal till by now! Upended all my shopping into my trolley, grabbed my bags, declared Morrisons self service hopeless and marched out and went to Asda round the corner.
Realised at Asda I had left my trolley token stuck in the trolley in Morrisons Blush - well at least it wasn't a pound coin.
Probably unreasonable, but felt great for a moment Grin.

Morrisons must have bought a cheapo job lot of their machines because across the country they are worse than useless. they especially hate 'light' items as the scales dont seem to pick them up so i always give the bagging area scales a little downward shove when i am loading small or light stuff so the dumb arse machine reads that something has been put down there.

I had the unexpected item in bagging area alert. It was my bloody bag, how dare it tell me off for a bag in the bagging area.

I think all these self scan tills are as useless as the rest, no matter what supermarket they are in.

And whats wrong with Morrisons julia?
