You didn't lower prices when you put in self checkout. Don't piss on me and call it rain.

Self checkout did lower the prices if you play the game right.

For example, one time I had 2 donuts in a bag, but I rang them up as just 1 donut. Please dont tell the cops.

If I see you stealing food, no I didn’t.

I wouldn't snitch even if I saw someone walking out with a wagon of money from the store safe. Fuck corporations.

Why is my neighborhood a food desert??

imagine being so brainwashed by corpos that you forget that small businesses exist and can easily take the place of every walmart.

I’m talking about my own lived experience, and it fucking sucks.

[-] omarfw@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

food deserts only happen when corporations move in, push out all the competition, then leave.

How did two donuts become one donut though? Are you a wizard?

I always seem to lose count when scanning the same item repeatedly. I'm sure I got close to 12, and that's close enough.
