They would have to be able to understand English in order to get it...
ReplyDeleteSomeone please clarify this. If an item is selling "2 for $.", does this count as 2 items or one item at the check-out counter?? If the answer is "2", why does a 6-pack not count as "6"?? AND what would be the difference between a 4- pack of Jello and 4 jello cups? What is the correct and logical rule to follow??
ReplyDeleteI always count items as like. For instance 10 yogarts are 1 item. Something like a 6 pack is usually bundled together with plastic and would also count as 1.
ReplyDeleteThat's my rule of thumb but others might see it different. Either way for the sake of good manners if your cart is too full then you should go to the other line.
When they start adding a surcharge for every item over 15 THEN people will get it.
ReplyDelete10 yogurts that each have to be picked up and scanned individually is 10 items. A pack of 6 that can be picked up together and scanned once is 1 item.
8:19 isn't exactly wrong. We buy a case of canned cat food at one time, (24). Even though we bring it to the register in the whole case, they still scan them one at a time.
ReplyDeleteJoe, Is the case of cat food all one flavor or different flavors. If different than they need to be scanned individually for inventory/ordering control. I agree with 8:46 about item count=scan.
ReplyDelete8:19-When your short bus arrives at Wal Mart,please enter the store with a responsible adult.He or she will explain everything to you.
ReplyDelete9:07, all one flavor.
ReplyDeleteSeriously ??????
ReplyDeleteThe management and Cashier need to address this....I have seen plenty of folks with three sets of CARTS full to the top...take a few items out at a time; pay for them and continue till all the carts are clear....
ReplyDelete12:59 In case you didn't notice, they are paying with several different welfare cards and getting cash back on each transaction.
ReplyDeleteThey are still looking for their third hand...
ReplyDelete>>>When they start adding a surcharge for every item over 15 THEN people will get it.<<<
ReplyDeleteBrilliant, 8:46. I'd be thrilled to see that imposed. Of course, the EBT crowd would just pay the surcharge with free money, but some might actually get the idea.
