OT: Carrot supermarket swindle

It does as far as the machine is concerned. It all depends if there is a member of staff watching you.

I've not tried the carrot thing, but I have on occasion accidentally paid the wrong amount due to it not scanning properly. They never walk over and say I've done it wrong.

You can do it with anything, just don't make it too obvious.

You're nuts. None of the above benefited you.

I once bought 20 rolls of chicken wire from Focus DIY (now B&Ms). The till girl couldn't be bothered taking them all out, so she asked how many. I said 12. At B&Ms I bought a water butt tap. I picked up a pack of 5, which was supposed to be opened into singles before going on the shelf, but they had forgotten. The bar code indicated to the till that it was 1. I found 5 in it when I got home. I kept the other four. You have to take all these little extras in life.

Then you are not Richard Madeley.

Ever put a carrot in a girl's bum?

Why did you not just put down your shopping? Did the pain cause you to forget?

Whatever, means the same thing. The guy that decides if you get done for theft.

Try that in a supermarket here. Cameras, security guards, one way mirrors. But there are a lot of theives in Scotland.

I look nothing like that, watch my videos more carefully.

No, she was uglier than me and thought she was onto a winner.

You need to learn better English, convict.

Cheating is profitable.

Ah so sorry not speak good English not realise have to pay.

Why are they not caught?

Is this a specific event you are quoting?

What the f*ck are you talking about shrinkage and expandage? What has the volume of product to do with the tag?

Quite. We ('most people' I believe) have a conscience and have to live with any decisions we make.

No empathy, conscience respect for others and 'of course' you wouldn't understand what 'doing the right thing' was all about.

It also explains how some people vote the way they do ...

I find with anything like that I just put on a tubigrip type of thing. Keep the joint or muscle warm and straight and it will heal.

The conviction only occurs if you're caught. And you can say you made a mistake.

That is a one way passage. Now, lets discuss the front bottom.
