Thanks for the warning

A customer comes through my line last night (NOT the express lane!)

She has maybe half a dozen items, and I ring them all through while she squints intently at the totals coming up on the monitor.

SC: "That squash is how much??"

Me: "$X.XX"

SC: "Take it off."

Me: "Okay."

SC: "And take this off." (hands me a package of meat)

Me: "Okay"

SC: "And take this off." (hands me a second package of meat)

Thanks, you stupid POS. Now I have to do a "Cold return" call so the meat can be picked up quickly.

Finally she pays for what's left and leaves, and a coworker comes up to me.

CW: "She does that ALL. THE. TIME. Has you ring up everything and then starts demanding to take stuff off."

I don't know whether she's incapable of doing basic math in her head while shopping (even I can manage that) or whether she just likes to be a bitch.
