Produce at my store is always rung up with codes -- usually four-digit codes. If you type in the wrong code you can end up trying to charge a customer for something they're not buying. It's something that can happen easily if you're rushing.
So the other day, I was in something of a rush ....
One of the items in a customer's order was a small bag of maybe half a dozen apples. I typed up the code in a hurry and accidentally added an extra digit. So instead of apples, he was being charged for clementines.
$520.00 worth of clementines, to be exact.
He and I stared at the monitor and then looked at each other. He cracked up.
Customer: "Those are expensive clementines!"
Me: "Sir, I think you just bought the whole orchard."
I ended up having to get a supervisor over to void the order because that was WAY over the amount any cashier can void.
