I don't mind but sometimes if assistant busy she takes ages to do my check.
Today the only thing I scanned and didn't buy was the toilet roll but normally I scan loads things.0 -

Afternoon All
Just been looking on the Debenhams site - pretty rubbish this year on the 70% discounts, but just found a pair of boots called "Bendova" :rotfl: someone wasn't thinking.0 -

So weird - when I went with Tiny shoes and her dodgy ankle earlier this week I was using hand held scanner to check prices and must have deleted about 40 items but when I sent to pay - fully expecting to be stopped I sailed through without it calling for a random check. Weird!0 -

I find the easiest thing to do is just use scanner to check prices, and cancel as you go :cool: Put scanner back and then go through normal till.0 -

I've done similar twice this week - even scanned items for other people and was fully expecting to be security checked each time.
I put it down to having an innocent looking face
