It wouldn't scan so I took my second bag of oranges, scanned that and put the first one in. The light turned red, the employee came over and replay the video of the last 10 seconds of what I did, I showed him why I did that and he cleared the system because that was understandable. This is to catch people trying to buy an expensive item using a cheaper item's bar code. In your case you're trying to cheat a street date system, so I don't know what's the punishment for that. By all means come back and tell us what happened when you get caught. I'm seriously curious!

Not trying to scare you, you do what you do. I'm just saying don't say no one warned you should something happen.

Fair enough. And not disagreeing at all. However, if an item is on the shelf, it’s fair game. It’s bs that a customer can’t use their their money on an item that is clearly available to purchase. Street date or not.
