I work at a grocery store, but because of school, I only work every other weekend. Well today was my day to work and luckily I only had these two lovely gems.
Our grocery store allows customers to load coupons onto their loyalty cards. Today early in my shift, a lady came through with some coupons, plus had some already on her card. Well one of the coupons was the same as what was on her card for one item, then she also had two other coupons that were for another item. I gave her back the one that was the same as on her card, and then one of the ones for the other item and told her she couldn't use more than one coupon per item. She couldn't understand why she couldn't use more than one coupon and was going on about how much money she spent at our store. >.< Sorry lady you can't get items for free from 2 $1 off coupons.
The second SC I had was much later, within an hour of us closing. Generally after 11, the only registers we have open are the SCO and I was closing tonight. This guy bought two bags of chips and some stuff from the deli area. He said one of the bags of chips was cheaper than what it had rung up so I went to check the price and either the chips were in the wrong spot or he saw the wrong price, because they had rung up right. When I told him the price was right, he grumbled and said he didn't want them. After that, he continued to check out but I could tell he was getting moody with the machine. I wanted to offer to help him, but I could tell he would get mouthy. He finally just put his stuff in his cart, shoved it to the side, and was basically like "screw this" and walked out without his stuff.
I also had a "sighting" of sorts today. I went to the electronic store to buy an external hard drive and in these stores, the way the lines work is you walk through these little aisles (there's a very specific place you enter) and you follow the path until you get to the registers and then wait for one to get open. Well there was this lady behind us and I see this guy slip in half way through the path and get in front of her. He then proceeded to "tailgate" my brother in law. Then when we got close to the front of the line, there were a couple of guys in front of us that were together and two registers opened at the same time. Well the two guys in front of us went to one, and my BIL and I went to another. The tailgater followed us and then when he realized we were going to the second one, he kinda looked around confused. I'm assuming he thought we were with the guys in front of us. He seemed like he was in a rush but, really? come on, you can't expect to go into an electronics store in the middle of a saturday afternoon and get out of there quickly.
