Tempest in a teapot.
Did they call someone over when they saw the discrepancy? Because, you know, mistakes happen.
I frequently have something not scan, or not come up right. There's a button for help, there's always someone right there anyway, hell, had a clerk walk up and help when he noticed I hit the wrong button. They pay attention.
"I was annoyed"... That a system misreported something? If I was annoyed every time that happened I'd never not be annoyed.
What's with this sudden "self checkout rage bait" this week? Who's pushing what agenda?
Or it might be that Coles and Woolies are already under investigation for price gouging all while unsurprisingly posting record profits. Most Australians have felt the really quick rise of the cost of living, and are rightly skeptical of both supermarkets which basically hold a duopoly over Australian shops. They already do a bunch of sketchy shit, what’s to stop them from doing more?
Aight bud, that was to show why there’s already distrust towards both corporations. It’s not hard to see why people would be inclined to believe that Coles/Woolies are trying to fuck them over yet again.
