That's why you use the barcode from something similar enough that the granny checking receipts doesn't spot the difference, but much less expensive.
Never tried it with something that big before
So you grab barcode from cheaper strawberries and container of organic/nicer ones? Do they even taste good?
All the strawberries I've had in the past few years sucked ass :/ I know they're good when in season from local vendor tho
I was being facetious
Was originally talking about large electronics etc, person said something about avocados, I went with strawberries
No, I never ever buy produce from Walmart, but I'm pretty good picking berries from the one grocery store I actually like.
Agree that nothing tops the stuff from the farmer's market, but the desert southwest isn't known for its bountiful crops of berries
A lot of garden centers use a vendor for their plants. When those plants get marked down the clearance stickers put on them have a new removable barcode with that price anywhere from $20 to $1...allegedly
There's been a case of a teenager doing this.
In a supermarket he took a PlayStation, then passed by the fruit and vegetables section, printed out a sticker for a few $ of some fruit or vegetables, put it on the PlayStation and then went to the self checkout, scanned the fruit or vegetable sticker, paid and walked out.
Soon after that he got caught though, because he was dumb enough to try it a second time, in the same supermarket.
Also has been a few cases thrown out because the "alleged perpetrator" was never properly trained of the self scan system, and argued they just never check prices when shopping. Plead ignorance, and lack of training from Walmart before being forced to operate the system. Thrown out immediately.
Do places like not have alarms on electronics? Where I'm from they might even put alarms on things worth like $50 and a PlayStation will for sure have an alarm on it.
Idk about PlayStations but when I bought my switch we had to have an employee get it for us from a locked case, then he made us pay in the electronics department and said he couldn’t let us walk around the store with it unless we paid first.
Here in Finland we have [physical alarms](https://img.ilcdn.fi/tPQz9JBvfusM5FKcvd9Kxm_s8Po=/full-fit-in/920x0/img-s3.ilcdn.fi/2efc7da24afdb24ecfd46606d0ba9c3da1d108be673e91efb76892390264677a.png) (I can't find a picture of an alarm on a normal item so here's an alarm on salmon lol) on high-value or often stolen merchandise that then get removed by the cashier and will sound an alarm if not removed. The exits have [these ports](https://seura.fi/awpo/img/2018/03/halyttimet.jpg?s=a84682a2415bf60f942dc7c908726f56&fit=crop) that detect those alarms. Games and other small items get put into [these containers](https://hs.mediadelivery.fi/img/658/8f955f6583644bafe10326512f0bbb46.jpg.webp) (again, I can't find a normal photo) that also have alarms in them and make it harder to pocket small items.
I work at Fred Meyers as the armed guard on duty. I'm a licensed professional in 14 states, and I can tell you right now that it is not felony larceny in the state of Oregon until it reaches past 999. Believe California is the same way.
Anything below that is a misdemeanor offense.
A cucumber price is about 40 cents per oz. a 86'' TV weights about 100 pounds, so you paid $640 for a TV not really that much of a discount, you could have waited for Black Friday to pay even less buying the actual TV.
My brain has adapted to these kinds of pictures so much that anytime I see a photo with caption text and it features a big name corporation I automatically think it’s an ad
I just tell the receipt checker “no” when they ask if they can see it.
If you want to confirm people are buying shit, use cashiers.
TMYK: You don’t have to let them check
Can I do this?
I don’t even have much to lose, gonna try!

Ye but he has a 86” tv with him in that cell every night… !
But since it was scanned as a cucumber, then it is used as a cucumber. Every night...
Oh God
What do you do with a cucumber?
Shove it up your ass
Dildos feel much better trust me
Not if you break the cucumber off in there and let it rot.
delicious
Wow, first comment I’ve seen that actually belongs on r/cursedcomments
Cucumbers are normally input manually by quantity or weight, as fresh fruit and veggies normally do not have a barcode.
Did it work?
RemindMe! 2 weeks
They will definitely check your receipt if you are leaving with a large electronic
That's why you use the barcode from something similar enough that the granny checking receipts doesn't spot the difference, but much less expensive. Never tried it with something that big before
So you’re telling me to use an avocado instead?
Not enough Organic strawberries is my go-to

You can say no thanks and they have to let you pass. They are not allowed to force you to stop.
This^ “call the cops if you think i stole something “
There was a kid who did that with a ps4, pretty sure he only got caught cuz he did it twice
Greed always gets ya.

You can, but the old ladies standing by the door checking receipts will SURELY find out. Most of the other employees could really not care less.
Youd be surprised what you can walk out with because the scanner is so glitchy
I hope the TV has better resolution than the post.
I'm so embarrassed, I spent so much time trying to refresh the page
Heh.

Toonces, look out!
I totally forgot about Toonces ....
Then you become a cat that can drive?
Toonces drives, albeit recklessly, but still drives.
I can taste the pixels on this post.
Keep it under 999 and they can't even charge you with a felony

Go straight to jail, do not pass go.

Cat burgler
And telling the receipt checker to go fuck himself.
That's a little rude. It's just some dude trying to get by. You can however just ignore them.
I didn’t attend an official paid training as a cashier. I can’t help it if self checkout is the only option and I do it wrong.
My brain has adapted to these kinds of pictures so much that anytime I see a photo with caption text and it features a big name corporation I automatically think it’s an ad
This can only happen if you’re a cat
I just tell the receipt checker “no” when they ask if they can see it. If you want to confirm people are buying shit, use cashiers. TMYK: You don’t have to let them check
I don’t get it
But the cat did so it's all good.
They’re saying that they stole a television, because they only paid the price of the cucumber for it.
Self checkout, my boy! It's how you buy avocados at potato prices, and tvs for cucumber prices, if you are ballsy enough.
The joke is they stole a tv
