RE: Are self-checkouts checking out...?
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
The Daily Fail is a devious publication at best but I’m not surprised people are being naughty. Our local Sainsbury’s insists you take a receipt as you need one to get past the controlled barriers just beyond the self checkout areas. This caught me out as I declined a receipt having purchased all of my shopping and then I got stuck at the barrier. I had no idea that this system was in place.

I'm always surprised when you're asked whether you want a receipt, or shops just assume you don't. I'm often going in several shops on one journey, buying the things I want from whichever one is cheaper, I'm waiting for the day they say that I didn't put the bottle of wine that I came in with through the till.
It’s probably happened somewhere leading to arguments that the customer had purchased it but don’t wish to collect a load of receipts.
Yes I've seen that in London!
Probably in response to the dishonesty going on!
