Either that, or I have to wait for an employee myself for the stupidest reason, i.e. that I've brought a canvas bag that they have to verify I didn't steal.
Your supposed to weigh the bag first, at least in some stores.
Unexpected item in bagging area. Please remove unexpected item in bagging area. An associate has been alerted.
You sometimes have to press a button for using your own bag first
I know ~~my~~ I am, same thing here, but even when I do, if it's a bag previously bought from the same place, they usually want to verify. Maybe the system's watching for the store logo on the bag. Most likely they have cameras watching the self-service checkouts to make sure you don't do anything funky, i.e. weighing apples and selecting carrots on the screen.
Fucking hell, where do you live where stores treat customers like potential shoplifters stealing bags costing 50 pence?
Wait until I tell you about the coin-operated shopping carts.
This has nothing to do with stealing. It is about not leaving them everywhere.
This has mostly to do with not leaving them everywhere, but if they're randomly left in the parking lot, some people will happily steal them. Plus this was in the same notion of not trusting people to do what's expected.
Your comments are completely irrelevant to what I have said.
That’s why I use my Walmart bag at king soopers
