Things that sh*t me the seventeenth

Wonder what price difference is between a carton of 30pk coke and a carton of beers.

With specials Coke is half the price but at normal price it would only be $10-15 difference for a slab of local beer.

How do you scan a 30 pack as a 24 pack when your scanning a barcode? It ain't like fruit and vege were you select the item your scanning and weighing.

And on both your comments I've been had on the cans when they placed the 24 cans in the 30 can section. Yes the 30 cans were on special while the 24 cans were full price. When paying I thought the total seemed a bit expensive for what I bought. It wasn't until I was driving home and realised I had a 24 pack and not the 30 pack that it clicked on why my groceries seemed so expensive. There is no way anyone is paying full price for Coke.

You don't have to scan the barcode, click on heavy and miscellaneous and it gives you the options and leave them on the ground and not the bagging area.

Sneaky and this why prices go up at next stocktake.

Wonder how much money they lost since shelf service vs money saved on staff..

Prices are going up regardless.

Saw a bloke stuffing his trousers near his ankles with meat the other day and another putting things into their sleeves of their jumper. I can't blame people to be honest.

You could probably just leave it in your trolley the whole time.

They seem to have got rid of the bagging area scales, probably because of the level of staff involvement required for 'unexpected item in bagging area'. They will be using cameras and possibly AI to prevent theft but it's not clear how foolproof it is. Can it tell the difference between a bag of washed potatoes at $4.70/kg, mushrooms at $13/kg and garlic at $33/kg? Can it tell if you haven't scanned an item?

Hahndorf shits me.

Mrs Post was there many years ago, went again today. Whoa. It's the Queenstown of South Australia. Full-on Operation Moneysuck designed to get the maximum cash from gullible tourists. Walked up and down the main street, went back to the car and drove to Mclaren Vale to get some groceries.

South Australian supermarkets shit me. Coles (yup - C O L E S) closes at 5pm on Sunday. 5pm!!! We made it with 10 minutes to spare.

And of course the self-checkout ****ed up after I'd paid and it gave a system error that the teenager couldn't fix and required a manager to eventually be found and log in, turned out the receipt printer had jammed, beep beep that should fix it, they **** off and the things in some infinite "have you fixed it" "OK" "have you fixed it" loop.

Walked out before I booted the damn thing into next week.

Agree on SA supermarkets.
Hired a car over a while ago someone puts a very small trolly mark in the door.
Hire place wanted $750...got them to 500$...is a rip .

Not a word of a lie. Walked in just as they were announcing to all shoppers that it was ten to five and start moving to checkouts please.

"A cigarette butt was found in the common (outdoor) area today. The perpetrator should consider this their first and final warning. Any recurrence will result in a full investigation."

JFC guys, get a grip. My dog shat in the hallway last week. No one knows about it, I cleaned it up. It doesn't matter! It matters about as much as one cigarette butt.

People are ridiculous.

Do people own units etc there or just rent..?
Either way can't kick people out over dog or ciggy butt brain seems very harsh.

It's a mix of renters and owner/occupiers.

In my 20 years of renting I've never come across an owners corp more determined to find problems to involve themselves with.

Mrs Mangle must be the CEO of the owners corp.
That's just so stupid.

They blame god if the wind blows lots leafs on the driveway.

Swivel my chair around, notebook I am holding clips a pint glass of water.

20 minutes of swearing and finding new puddles of water to blot up with paper towel, then get everything back in order, throwing out papers and sticky note pads.

I might start work at some point today.
