Sly extra spending at Morrisons (insert other supermarket as preferred)

[Rudicoolcat]

Just a heads up for folks to keep their eyes on the cashier whilst packing up your Christmas big shop into bags.

Husband was brilliant in loading the conveyor with big shop and dutifully stood uncomplaining with wallet in hand to pay.

I took on the packing duty, (seasoned experience applies) and we had us all done in due course. Cashier certainly did not rush, chatting to her colleague about their breakfast....

Anyway, when we were told the total by the cashier I asked her to double check as I was sure I'd seen her double scan a bottle of champagne. Prefuse apologies received, machine checked and double scan hastily removed. Husband then happily paid.

Before leaving the till area a quick scan of the receipt showing more double scanning, in excess of £23!

Had to go to customer service for refund to husband's debit card. Assistant there didn't bat an eyelid, didn't want to check anything and refunded amount in record time. We thought she must be used to providing double scan refunds at this time of year. If we hadn't checked, we'd be nearly £50 out of pocket!!!

Just another shopper trying keep the cost of living to the cost of living, and not unnecessarily adding to the profits of the supermarket!

Keep 'em peeled...👀

To me standing dutifully with wallet in hand waiting to pay after knowing that his is main role in "the big shop" gives the mental image of a brow beaten husband who knows his place is to follow quietly and then pay at the end with no opinions offered.

I use my credit card for everything. I pay it off every month, so no interest charges. I don’t think it’s unusual. There’s lots odd about this, but the credit card isn’t weird at all.

66 is still not young though. And neither is Brad Pitt. Not sure what Brad Pitt has got to do with anything. He may be an attractive man, but he is still 61. Not young either.

I don't understand why the OP needs to publicly claim her husband's penis either. Gross 🤢

Women’s work though isn’t it of course, so he’s a saint 🙄

@Rudicoolcat 19.56

....he his mine, and so is his penis! 🤣🤣

What have I just read.?! 😆 Why would you say this? And no, his penis is not yours! It's his! How would you feel if your 'hero husband' went onto a mens forum and told the men on there that your vagina is HIS.

Why you think any other poster on here would be interested in your husband's penis?

This thread is weird, and your last post (at 19.56) is very strange! Why all the personal and intimate information? And why the horrific attacks on hard working low paid shop staff?!

I think the OP's DH is what I term a "loose man" one who has a partner in there somewhere but until it comes to packing and paying (and probably driving) is surplus to requirements and just clogs up the aisles, hands in pockets, whistling and looking at nothing in particular.

It's every shade of weird isn't it?

But she won’t have a receipt for it and they’re subjected to random bag checks.

Oh ffs. Every post where you’ve tried so desperately to be funny is so cringe inducing.

No one wants your husbands penis love.

Usually on here anyone over about 50 is ready for downsizing to retirement flats.

Yes it's weird to start claiming bits of other people's bodies as your own

I think her husband might want it

Yep. Also. OP has gone quiet since she made this outlandish statement!

Yep! 😆

I don't think she's claiming his penis as hers, but that it's a prince.

Perhaps it resembles

I use the self scanner and pack as I go. So much quicker and more convenient. Not a clue why anyone uses the old style system.

Because everyone’s not you?

Well it would suit the op who suspects skullduggery as the reason for items being double scanned 🤷🏻‍♀️

Old style system...? You mean actually being served by a human, in a customer service environment?

Fuck the self service tills. Unless the number of items I have is a number I can physically carry in my hands, I will go to a manned checkout.

You could just get it all delivered and let others do the leg work, why would you do the scanning when you can get it delivered to your door.

This was the most weirdly written OP I've seen in a long time. Genuinely thought it could be a troll post but based on the updates I assume the OP was just trying (and failing) to be funny. Cringe.

@RedRiverShore5 because I live a two minute drive from the supermarket and it's more time efficient to go myself than do it online then wait in the house at a certain time-slot. I get what you mean, I hate shopping & if I lived further away I'd probably get a delivery. Plus I don't like getting substitutions.

Tesco have had new systems put in this year and that has included new checkout software I would say that this level of double scanning is the result of the feedback sound not being loud enough or not directed to the operator so they aren’t hearing it go through rather than any ‘sly’ behaviour.
