Don’t feel bad, you earned it. Imagine how it’s cheaper for companies to pay god knows how much on anti-theft measures instead of paying a living wage to cashiers.
ps. You should never use self checkout. We’ve all been tricked into thinking we can do it better/faster ourselves.
I go to self checkout because my closest supermarket has one cash register and the queue is always like 6 old people
look I’m all for sticking it to the Man and stealing if you’re actually starving but a lot of you people are just Petty thieves
The grocery stores are as well when there’s record inflation and people struggling and they are all posting record profits.
It’s strange how the disproportionality of wealth makes theft seem ok.
In this case it doesn’t, you’re stealing luxury items that are playing a huge huge role in water consumption. It’s like 91 liters of water per day per tree.
And an academic study focusing on global implications for water scarcity from the growth in avocado production says that that growing avocado requires “four times more water than the production of a kilo of oranges and ten times of that of a kilo of tomato”.
Now check up how much water is required for meat, and suddenly realise that you’re maybe fighting the wrong battle here mate.
Whataboutism is a logical fallacy. One has nothing to do with the other.
Exactly avocados being bad for the environment doesnt have anything to do with having the right to steal them.
You do know how much water is wasted to produce avocados, right? 💧
Almonds?
The ones from NCR use the camera-based 7879/7895 scales with computer vision to check that you aren’t doing this. It’ll take a picture and require an override where it shows that picture to the attendant.
It’s called produce assurance.
There are different types of bread? Oh there is organic and cheap?
Wow sorry but if they outsource even the low income jobs they are so evil they dont deserve anything but that
The fact that things like this never occur to me as possibilities goes to show just how naive I am about how the world works
It’s all fun and games until you are banned from the local grocery stores .Loss prevention is pretty good these days. It’s the Internet though, they really aren’t stealing. It’s internet tough guy shit.
I was at one and moved an unscanned item to close to the bagging area and the screen froze then showed an areal cam of me getting too close to the bagging area.
Oh hell that’s creepy
Most self checkouts use cameras and AI where I am.
Where I used to live, the self checkout didn’t even accept Google Pay.
Aw, that’s the best part. I love paying with my ridiculous smart watch that I didn’t need.
Well too bad you spent so much money on a watch that needs to be charged every day.
It was a stupid impulse buy, yes…
Oh these are the worst. I had an Apple watch Series 0 I got cheap from a friend. Was pretty neat, but the charging was annoying.
Now I have a Casio GBD-200 which gives me a few smartwatch features (notifications, phone finder, vibration) with a battery that lasts 1-2 years and since it’s a G-Shock I don’t have to worry about damaging it.
