The crime here is that ham and asparagus costs $67.00.
You can usually tell by someone’s demeanor whether it was an error or they actually forgot to scan items. Also, if you frequent a specific grocery store often, the check-out clerks usually know you and know whether you are the type to cheat at the check-out.
I’ve used the same Kroger for years and am on a first-name basis with the self check-out attendants. I once forgot to scan my deli items and didn’t realize it until I got to the car. I put my other groceries into the car, and then returned to the store and informed Carolyn (sweet lady) of what I had done. She quickly scanned them at her register and sent me on my way.
