People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

I know ~~my~~ I am, same thing here, but even when I do, if it's a bag previously bought from the same place, they usually want to verify. Maybe the system's watching for the store logo on the bag. Most likely they have cameras watching the self-service checkouts to make sure you don't do anything funky, i.e. weighing apples and selecting carrots on the screen.

Fucking hell, where do you live where stores treat customers like potential shoplifters stealing bags costing 50 pence?

Wait until I tell you about the coin-operated shopping carts.

This has nothing to do with stealing. It is about not leaving them everywhere.

This has mostly to do with not leaving them everywhere, but if they're randomly left in the parking lot, some people will happily steal them. Plus this was in the same notion of not trusting people to do what's expected.

Your comments are completely irrelevant to what I have said.
