Cheeky bugger

Was just at the supermarket and the bloke in front of me in the check out had a huge bag full of individual bottles of beer. He starts putting a few of them on the conveyor belt one by one and the much agitated girl at the till tells him stop as theres a huge queue behind him, swipes through one and asks him how many he has?

He tells her 24, (there was at least another 10 or 12) He knew exactly what he was doing.

**** it, fair play to him if he has the neck to do it and the luck to get away with it.

Cookie_Monster · 31-07-2009 6:04pm

Cheeky but in all fairness she should be doing her job properly. I blame her.

MonkeyTennis · 31-07-2009 6:09pm

. Why would he use a bag as opposed to a trolley? Im thinking he knew how it would play out. The worst that could happen is that he pays for all the beers

AnonoBoy · 31-07-2009 6:21pm

They do ask you not use bags in supermarkets though. I've seen people being stopped in Dunnes before and asked to put their items in a basket while they were shopping.

Oh The Humanity · 31-07-2009 6:21pm

Delighted for him. Tesco have been robbin the Irish public for years, its about time they got a taste of their own medicine!

He might have been dyslexic...there are lots of dyslexic alcololics out there. They drink to forget they can't count...and then they end up thinking they've only had two or three and are ratarsed.

It's a very sad condition, I think Ghandi suffered from it.

Ah but you see if you go to far you'll get caught. Can't be to greedy like. He was right on the limit going 12 bottle over.

but...you havent told us how many he had in reality! you say 'a few' and then...'at least another 10 or 12'

if he said 24 to the girl, how do you know he wasnt actually OVERCHARGING himself? :pac:

MonkeyTennis · 31-07-2009 6:48pm

Eh how exactly? Tesco provide a service..they name their price. If they were leaving a bottle or two out of every 24 bottle crate, and it was brought up on AH you can be sure they wouldnt be congratulated on it...

He used to drink so much he suffered terribly from the fear.

He used to go missing for days on end, swearing blindly that he'd never drink or eat again.

I think he might have had a bit part in Slumdog Millionaire.

Nice to know there were no shops robbing people here before Tesco arrived.

Nah ! can't agree - This chappie sounds like a right smart ar$ed cnunt.

Supermarket girl made one fatal mistake...admittedly very common in Ireland..she took on the customers problem.

Why should it bother her if people have to wait because of this guys selfishness ?

me? I would have scanned each bottle s l o w l e y - an maybe engineered a tally roll problem an let the cnunt get the full range of baleful stares from the waiting customers.

Then checked with management that single botle purchases were allowable.

Really hate people who think this sort of thing is smart....it's like the fookin developers take what you can get away with ..only on a smaller scale.

Thats what i thinks anyways...so i do

I have seen someone doing similar to that. Here's how to get free McDonald's, genius!

and his parents for bringing up such a scally.

and god for making him with enough free will to be a chancer. oh, and for being imaginary too.

We'll all be made to feel sorry for the thieving pisshead when we see his jaundiced face on the front of some tabloid, when his family's trying to put the squeeze on some donor's next of kin for a new liver.:eek:

Ah go on pal....force yourself.

No I don't work in a Supermarket but I have a very senior position in the FMCG area.

I sometimes shop in Supermarkets..when little Conchita is not feeling up to it.

Now ..your point ?

oldyouth · 01-08-2009 3:07pm

The lad is a thief, he deliberately took what did not belong to him. There is not really much more to say

Too right pal...it's not the actual deed that grinds my gears it's the attitude of these fcuks.

The attitude that ..do it if you feel you can get away with it...the same fooks and their fellow travellers are probaly.

Dole cheats

tax dodgers

Welfare scroungers

Insurance fraudsters'

The kind of coonts who go on expensive foreighn holidays..overlook getting any form of insurance....an expect the |Irish taxpayer to bail them out.....when things go wrong.

Really hate them fookoos..:mad:

barakus · 03-08-2009 10:20pm

He wouldnt have got away with that in Dunnes... The checkout girl would have called for a price check then waddled off to get the legendary 'key' then counted all the bottles painstakingly while chatting away to the girl at the next till about last nights corrie.
Anyhows fair dues to him- Tescos have closed down sh*tloads of small Irish businesses over the years and charged us more for the same goods than the uk for years so balls to em:)

Please do begin to tell us what is wrong with charging the customer correctly for the goods they are buying.

pickarooney · 03-08-2009 11:06pm

I honestly don't understand why the girl told him to stop putting the bottles on the belt?? If he had had a trolley full of crap would she have told him to just guess the total value of the items so as not to delay the other customers? And what was the OP doing looking into the guy's bag to count his beers? This doesn't add up. I call shenanigans.

Cheeky bugger
