I've never used them. I refuse to use them.
Even if one day, they do away with all check out staff altogether, I still won't use them. By that time, I'll be getting my groceries delivered by drone anyway  |

Of course you're supposed to be able to buy booze at them. A light will go on at the till to alert the attendant either then or at payment time to come and approve the purchase. They will either then remove security tags there and then or you should swing by the attendant and get them to remove it as you leave, it depends how busy they are, quite often the attendants are run off their feet.

When the kids were small, Mrs mememe who's as honest as the day is long, used to give 'em sweets as soon as she went into the supermarket to keep 'em quiet while she shopped.
By the time she reached checkout, sweets gone. I thought about taking my portable bbq in and having a picnic in the hardware aisle, but Mrs mememe said I'd set off the fire alarm. |

Unlucky mate. You try a bit of Valentine's Day romance and she throws it back in your face.

Not many wives lucky enough to have a husband who still offer them romance, never mind the sort that sets the fire alarm off.

Tried to get her to like steak tartare and offered to take her round Waitrose last August as it was her birthday.
Finished up with cold chicken legs at M&S. Still, we had a good day out. |

In W H Smith I bought a magazine and used the self service checkout. I put £20 note in but no change came out. I made a big fuss about it but staff couldn't help. Eventually got the manager down who told me the machines never make a mistake like that and he was not allowed to open the machine until balancing up at the end of the week. After more fuss he agreed to open machine only to tell me there was nothing wrong and I could not have put a £20 note in. Obviously I told him I didn't want the magazine now but did want my £20 back. Manager says when he balances machine up at end of week he will let me know if it's £20 over. Fortunately it was Friday so I didn't have to wait long. He phoned me and told me the machine (which never makes a mistake) was £19.50 over so he presumed this was my £20 and there had been another error of 50p. I then had to go back to the shop to get the £20. Good job it hadn't happened on a Monday and it had been my last £20. Same machines are used at the airports so think what you'd do if you were waiting to catch a flight at an airport along way from home.

Crikey, if it was a Monday you'd be stuck in the airport all week waiting for them to cash up.
Tom Hanks once did this, but it was a lot longer before he got his change ... can't remeber the film ... The Changeling?? |

Was that the one with no background music on account of losing the score?

I saw someone literally shouting for help across the supermarket last week, when there was no-one around to green light him.
"Can anyone help me?" at the top of his voice. I suspected his mental health issues were only minor, so had a brief chuckle. But one day someone will beat on these misguided robots, FOBT style. |
