Case withdrawn against mom who 'stole' R3.99 cheese roll at Pick n Pay

[ForceFate]

PLEASE put out a TESTER!! Simple solution! Deodorant is scented, not all scents smell nice on your skin and you have to try it on your skin, just like perfume. I buy the same one most of the time, but every so often it's out of stock, or the price suddenly jumped through the roof, or just discontinued, and I have to find a new one. Can't afford to waste money buying one that is going to make me stink because my skin reacted with it. And no it isn't just the R20 for another bottle, it is the R100+ for petrol as well.

Open, sniff, buy/put back.

QFT! Just picture putting that in a cup of tea or coffee. No thanks!

Dear lord liewe jesus don't get me started, walking speed, direction, alignment, orientation, and throwing down the anchors mid step.

South Africans have zero clue about what happens around them in a supermarket. It's like they go into forager mode. And they push trolley worse than they drive.

Rolling the trolley onto some lethargic waste of space and clipping their ankles is mean, but it sure puts the pep back in their step!

Some Clicks stores have isles so tiny you can't move without coming into contact with other people or knocking something off the shelf.

Sugar in tea?

I wish all shops would have narrow aisles at express tills. So many times I see people with trolleys smugly waiting in line.

I don't take sugar in either, some do?

You can't use a trolly in the express lane? Ours just say 10 items or less.

The wheels count as separate items. It doesn't specify that items must be purchase, you'll recall.

The basket trollies also have four wheels.

If i go the the express lane with 11 items but eat one before the till does that count?

 

[Nick333]

Hmm, and most models hold two baskets. It's a conundrum. A right chin scratcher.

If i go the the express lane with 11 items but eat one before the till does that count?

Only if you intend to pay for it.

I'm beginning to see the logic... I think you okes have been outed!

I have to say though shops parking more and more kak in the middle of isles is becoming a real problem.

Especially on pay day.

In a restaurant you are waited on by a person who does every action of ordering and food delivery for you.

There is no option to change your mind and leave half opened crap on the shelf. Or consume it and simply put the package down when done etc.

Quite different.

 

[ShaunSA]

Duh.

Anyway, I actually have to do some work now. I'll be back later to respond to your no doubt highly intellectual retort.

My humble apologies. My weekend started early so I forgot all about you
