Went to the supermarket this morning and made the mistake of using the automated checkout, open mannned checkouts were few and the lines long.
Tried to buy ginger, no luck, not in the system. Clerk comes by, looks up secret code and my $1.01 piece of ginger is ready for me to bag.
Almost finished when Hubby tries to find Hass Avocados in the system, need the clerk again, (at this point I am
and muttering this is one more reason I'm outta here and off to TV) more secret codes, rings up romaine lettuce, cancel transaction, new code, rings up Florida Avocados at 2x the price, cancel transaction, 3rd time's the charm, bingo! finally got my avocados.
What an ordeal
So the next time you're at the market in TV and someone scans and bags your groceries, and then asks if you need help to your car remember to say a heartfelt "Thank You Very Much".
