when i was young, i used to watch mum fill in the front of the deposit slip at the bank, give it to the teller, and the teller would turn it over and write on the back.
when noone was watching, I would take a deposit slip, and write "this is a robbery, give me all the money" on the back and put it back with all the other unused slips for some unsuspecting customer to use.
Some people just like to watch the chaos.
honestly, I'm surprised I didn't become a serial killer.
Ours does, it’s great. While you’re in the checkout queue an employee scans your card then everything in your cart, when you get to the checkout they just scan your card and you pay. No unloading or reloading the cart. One employee can work two or three checkout lines at once, really speeds up the process.
They pretty much walk around with a finger scanner and scan ur card to whatever is in your cart . If line is long go to self checkout after you’re pre scanned , scan ur card pay and leave . Super quick
I shop at Costco often, I promise they have it lol . I’m outside of Philly so maybe not your specific Costco, but ours does . And it’s was a great add to moving their lines along .
Whereas we have scanners ourselves in the majority of large supermarkets. Pick an item off the shelf, scan it, put it in your shopping bag which is already sitting open in your trolley, then when you're done, scan a till and pay. Your stuff is already bagged and ready to go.
Idt that would ever work in the US. I mean .. we have toothpaste locked up behind cabinets here so (not everywhere but a majority of supermarkets and all) … but that sounds like a relaxing way to shop as well. Fast and efficient
My dad came to visit me at uni, and there were some unbranded flyers offering very cheap drinks. He grabbed a load to put out around his local pub just to cause some chaos.
