I've started to see people more and more exploiting it in their favor, faking scans, "accidentally" missing it on an item, choosing non-organic when purchasing organic, etc.
This doesn’t surprise me - at least for veggies. The scale on those things is so sensitive that I wouldn’t think you’d get away with pretending to scan.... unless the product goes somewhere else.
Me? My conscience would not allow me to do it. Breaking the rules and not wearing my mask was so hard!
Stores around here don't have scales for what goes in the bag, only if you need to scan them for a label or need to select at checkout to weigh it.
So if you "miss" the label on a scan and "don't realize it", you can bag it and be totally fine.
My moral compass doesn't allow me to do it either, and I don't necessarily see self checkout as the problem others here do as I prefer the speed of checking out on my own over dawdling and marching at the pace of whichever cashier I have, especially for a small number of items, but ever since someone has mentioned that on this very forum I've started to see it happen in person.
I don't use them. If you want to give me a discount... I might...? But really... No way.
