Weird thing happened in Coles Richmond Traders this morning when I was buying my lunch. The exit gate for the self-serve lane didn't open. Had to show the receipt to the attendant to get the gates open to leave. I think this is Coles' response to grab it & run 'customers'. Might be a good idea to keep your receipt handy until safely out of there in future.
Reminds me, I had to go to target yesterday for the first time in 6 years lol and they didn't have a single human register, every single cashier register had been replaced with self serve and 1 lady manning all 20. Felt kinda dystopian
I start sweating at the self serve like I've stolen something but really I'm just over exerting myself because I have a trolley full of shit, no register is open so i have to do it myself and I want to get out of there.
