self check-out.
Just "forget" to scan an item or two and the receipt checker will give you a shrug or a nod, Screw the system. I'm not paying $7 for Biscoff.

When someone grabs the divider bar and puts it between are groceries, I always like to grab it and put it behind my groceries and combine mine with theirs as in suggesting they are gonna pay for my groceries too.
I do it just to see their reaction, some people laugh, some people get all Karen on me and some don't even notice until the checker is starting to scan their groceries and then start scanning mine too.
Just having fun at the grocery store...LOL

The woman before me at checkout had forgotten her club card, so her son had texted a picture of the bar code. The employe calmly explained that she would still have to get a day-pass over at the customer service desk.
At that moment, I used my emotional intelligence and offered my card. This is within policy provided the employee overlooks certain rules. In this case, she did. Saved everyone’s time, including mine; both the woman and employee showed their appreciation.
Most opportunities for random acts of kindness fall right on our laps. Again, everyone benefited from this opportunity in one way or another. I really needed that at the moment.

Ironically I was once an unaware participate of your dare.
I arrived at the only open checkout .On the conveyor belt there was a massive amount of items taking most of the conveyor belt, which was inconsistently moving forward.
I placed the divider behind all those items.
Leaving the noticeable break acknowledging my separate 5 things for purchase. While I wait I notice the guy in front of me holding a wine bottle low to his body on his right side.
I wondered what his deal was, because the person with all the items was already in the stance of of ready to purchase.
I quickly just forgot about the guy with his secretive holding of wine bottle low to his body.
I went into pleasant day dreaming mode while waiting for the customer to finish buying,bagging and walking away.
Within a few seconds of fast movements. The cashier moves my divider and starts moving my items to scan them. Simultaneously the guy in front of me raises his voice in a deep stern
"Whoa!" while moving his left arm in a circular motion above the scanner in front of the cashier, blocking her from scanning. While within the same movement raising
his right hand lifting a wine bottle that appears out of no where, up over and on to the scanning plate.
The cashier is taken aback buy the guys stern voice and wild fast arm movements.
She scans his wine and while waiting for the payment to go through,
grabs the divider raises it and turns her head to me, telling me this is why we use these. Waving the divider at me.
I just brushed off her suggestion saying," yea okay". Not fulling understanding what just happened.
The guy with his surprising wine bottle appearance leaves and its my turn to pay. The cashier was so snooty and snippy with me wanting to give me a further lecture on dividers uses.
Again I just played it chill saying "yea okay". I paid and I left the store.
I was quite amused by the whole collision of circumstances and how the cashier was mad at me, lecturing me on divider use, when I did use a divider.
It took a bit for me to remember that I had noticed the guy in front holding the wine bottle. Oh that's happened the guy with the wine bottle didn't use a divider, but I got blamed for it.
Sydney, I think I know what your favorite Opera House is
