Had something funny happen at wallyworld today when buying some tone. Swim decided to get two small cans instead of the gallon size. Swim knows it's cheaper with the gallon, but he hates having big containers of solvents stashed around. So swim goes to the dumb clerk and swipe, swipe-BEEP!
[clerk, confused]: uh. oh, it looks like there's a one-limit purchase on these.
[swim, surprised]: oh really?
[clerk]: yeah, that's strange...
[swim]: huh. well there's also a gallon size about 4 times bigger. I didn't need that much though...
[clerk, still confused]: ....
[swim]: that's ok don't worry about it
Sounds pretty stupid they limit acetone to 1 but pseudo at 3? There's no doubt why they limit the tone.. but geez that's dumb when they also have the gallon size.
Moral of the story: Swim wouldn't reccomend self-checkout machines.. because if it beeps like that when you try to buy too much, somebody has to come check out why it beeped, and probably hit a reset. Now, the person would probably be somebody who actually knew a thing or two, otherwise they wouldn't be put in charge of supervising 4 machines. Basically it just draws unwanted attention to yourself. Stick with the dumb clerks. There's always plenty to choose from!!
