Now that your posting a bit again, have you been in tesco recently?

They now have about 8 self service tills, i think you were right all along, the feckers are taking over!!

.... I like them now, I still won't use them, but I love arguing with the woman who comes and tries to talk you into using it.

I love the women in the asda with the big green hand pointing at tills for you, whatever happened to just pointing normally?

Just don't make her angry, you wouldn't like her when she gets angry.

Funny thing was, there was a documentary on the TV about this and the ex Tesco manager speaking on the subject said the aim was to have most checkouts like this with one supervisor covering eight tills, with a couple of mannned tills for those with difficulties .... goodbye checkout operators, up go profits .. and can you fill the fecking shelves as you enter the store, then stick a brush up your arse and sweep the floor as you walk round ... and then they can get rid of the cleaners too. It's WAR!

Or in the 'Loids case, load you trolley full of smartprice cack and then refuse to pay, or offer a penny in the pound


'Peggggggggggggggssssssssssssssssssssssss, get you pegs here'

I usually use the self service ones in Billingham Tesco, they have 8 now as well, but I won't go into why I prefer them.

I'd expect that most of your local store's are horrified to see you enter Talbot..

My stores what?

And why would they be

I pay my debts unlike Loids of Loidsville

You can't address Sussex like that man!

He'll have the Tinkers' Rights mob on you like a shot!

Even the Tesco Express shops at Throston and fens have self service tills now

Thats maybe why we havent seen Robinho, Torres or any other potential signings there this summer

That MAY amount to theft

I only went as far as putting a large morrisons salad through as a medium and even i felt shifty.

Didnt realise billingham p and chip fireball were running some underground till scamming circuit.

I don't know what you mean! I just prefer them because they're quicker, and you don't have to speak to any of the staff!!

ps: a 2 litre bottle of lemonade weighs exactly the same as a 2 litre bottle of cider.

Take your pick; theft or a Fraud Act offence.

Doesn't there have to be an intention ? if you scan it incorrectly by accident is it still theft or fraud?

.....I put a 24 carat diamond necklace through the other night as 24 cans of diamond white....(-:

You're referring to the dishonesty requirement (or the intention to make a gain in the Fraud Act); genuine mistakes are of course indicative of an honest intent. Some of these 'mistakes' wouldn't get past the thickest of magistrates!

Used these tills a couple of times and got "Call assistant" message both times to remove security tag. I only had assorted food stuff. So fook em I'll use the normal tills from now on and try to keep people in a job. Paying tax.

Maybe supermarkets are feeling the pinch and have to rake in a couple of extra billion. GREEDY TWATS.

They charge for them? I thought those sweets were there just to pick at while you wandered round the shop.

.. and pengiuns.

I shall be watching out for you lot in Tesco Hartlepool, camera 1 trained on the self serve checkouts, camera 2 on pick and steal and camera 3 on fruit and veg.
Does the words tea leaf mean owt to you crims?

You can't blame them. They've been conditioned to believe paedophilia is the only crime that matters any more. Just make sure you don't stand behind a small child in the queue and you'll be OK.
