RedArmyFakshun Posted April 11 Author Share Posted April 11 a great technique is to create a hoo-ha tech situation bamboozle the attendant, lots of hand waving sleight of hand in this situation can rack up the dividends 1 Link to comment
RedArmyFakshun Posted April 12 Author Share Posted April 12 for heavyweight switcheroo bizness you want to create a relationship with the attendant in advance the personal touch. everyone's a winner Link to comment

Cucumbers are now "high risk items" that need staff approval at my local supermarket, apparently people switch the barcode sticker from "standard" cucumbers on to "large" cucumbers to save 10p Link to comment

Could be shite though. Either way, don’t steal cucumbers kids. 2 Link to comment

Get so much more for your money that way and get good practice for Mario Kart at the same time. 1 Link to comment
RedArmyFakshun Posted April 12 Author Share Posted April 12 most of the premium organic fruit and veg is prewrapped with barcode just rip 'em out, bag 'em up, and get them weighed on the cheap on the self serve scale Link to comment
DeltaRay1903 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I had turned my back on stealing by my mid forties. Just didn't seem to be the right thing to do anymore. Only thing I take without paying these days are the bags from supermarkets. That's a point of principle. 1 Link to comment

Redforever86 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Buy two kilograms of pistachio nuts while they are attached to 5 helium balloons you are purchasing at the same time. Separate the items and return. Repeat. You shall be a millionaire. 1 Link to comment
maryhilldon Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Invent an anti gravity machine, set it at 10% gravity just before you weigh your carrots. Bingo, 90% discount. Link to comment

BrianFaePerth Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Eh resent how some shops like K-Mart want to see your receipt after you’ve done their work for them. Trust me to do it or do it yourself ffs It’s another of those situations where if you walk past with confidence and intent, they don’t challenge you. Link to comment
