Me accidentally buying a PS5 for $8 by weighing it as onions

For free.

Idk I've always just considered a way to go about my business quicker and with less need for human contact. It's a plus for me

You sound like a good person who returns their shopping cart

It's all fun and games until you are banned from the local grocery stores .Loss prevention is pretty good these days. It's the Internet though, they really aren't stealing. It's internet tough guy shit.

Encyclopedia: It is in fact *not* a banana. A banana is an elongated, edible fruit – botanically a berry – produced by several kinds of large herbaceous flowering plants in the genus Musa. In some countries, bananas used for cooking may be called "plantains", distinguishing them from dessert bananas. The fruit is variable in size, color, and firmness, but is usually elongated and curved, with soft flesh rich in starch covered with a rind, which may be green, yellow, red, purple, or brown when ripe. The fruits grow upward in clusters near the top of the plant. Almost all modern edible seedless (parthenocarp) bananas come from two wild species – Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana. The scientific names of most cultivated bananas are Musa acuminata, Musa balbisiana, and Musa × paradisiaca for the hybrid Musa acuminata × M. balbisiana, depending on their genomic constitution. The old scientific name for this hybrid, Musa sapientum, is no longer used.

The grocery stores are as well when there's record inflation and people struggling and they are all posting record profits.

what about sticking it to the man because fuck him

Correct. Still not sorry.

I always keep in mind the old adage, if you saw someone stealing food, no you didn't.

The term for that is "slap tagging."

When I ran the Marine Department at a major outdoor retailer, I was always fighting the warehouse team because they'd just roll out a high-end sonar unit in a cart for my people to stock and walk away, and there were people who would slap that them as shitty units from the same company, and the cashier wouldn't notice the difference between a Garmin 4CV (about $100) and a Garmin 8612 (about $5000).

In this case it doesn't, you're stealing luxury items that are playing a huge huge role in water consumption. It's like 91 liters of water per day per tree.

And an academic study focusing on global implications for water scarcity from the growth in avocado production says that that growing avocado requires “four times more water than the production of a kilo of oranges and ten times of that of a kilo of tomato”.

I use self checkout because I don't want to fake a conversation with the cashier.

I use self-checkout because I have a "20% off your entire cart" coupon that I don't want to give up. When I scan it, I just put a random piece of paper into the slot so the machine registers that I put something in there. In this way, I kind of am getting paid to scan my own groceries.

Crazy how all bananas grow with the same code on their sticker...
