Rinsing recyclables when on a water meter

samue1son said:I had a mental Polish bus buddy named Scooby. He looked like Sloth and sounded like Scooby-Do. Slow in the head but hilarious. We ended up opposite each other in the self scan, back in the days when your product was named out aloud. I kept hearing "Bananas".... "Bananas"... "Bananas">... this went on for nearly a minute. I turned around to see Scooby had basically put steaks and meat joints on the scales and filled up his basket to overflowing. Bananas were on special offer so his £6 rib eyes were like £1 in bananas. I couldn't stop myself from laughing until I cried because I wanted to tell him "dude, you'll get done for this" but I couldn't breath with laughter. Anyway, he caught me laughing and we both ended up walking out of the same exit.
The security guard ended up following ME thinking we were accomplices.
Next thing I see is Scooby trying to leg it and slipping over in the rainy street slabs. Fat security guard super splashes him and the meat tumbles on to the street. Scooby starts laughing whilst under this dude and manages to pull out his receipt. It just had bananas written all over it. The security guard took the bags back in and Scooby actually ended up with a refund of all things because they weren't sure what to do with his ENglish was terrible.

It was one of the funniest things I've ever witnessed.

Anyway, I imagine he does this now with Pink ladies and potatoes too.

Wayne_Cowdrey said:Apparently you can scan a voucher and then put a piece of paper into the slot instead of the voucher and the machine will accept it, enabling you to use the voucher again (and again and again).

McMuffin_Gains said:I came across a fascinating rule in a Morrison's in Northallerton, you are entitled to one free 5p bag when purchasing a hot pastry, however you are not allowed to add anything else to said bag else you must pay for it.

This is incorrect. It might just be to lure you into buying a pasty. Exemptions are:
•Uncooked fish
•Uncooked meat and poultry
•Takeaways
•Loose seeds and flowers
•Unwrapped blades, including axes, knives, and knife and razor blades
•Prescription medicine

I had never heard of these exemptions, obviously the self service attendant explained it incorrectly. To be fair I think she was mirin and was simply interfering with my pastry procurement because she wanted my penis in and around her mouth.
She was boz eyed and built like a Panzer tank with a distinct smell of cabbage about her.
The one that got away...
