There was only one "regular" checkout station, and that had quite a line. There were four self service stations, so that's where I went. At the prompt I scanned the tiny little baggie of screws. It then prompted me to put the scanned item in the bag. I did.
It insisted again that I put the item in the bag. Since I only had one item I tried to take it out of the bag. The computer demanded that I put the item back in the bag -- which I did.
Then the computer insisted that I put the baggie of screws into the bag. And the hilarity continued.
I called the store employee over.
I really try not to use the self-checkout lines unless I really have to.

Thats when a well placed finger on the scale where the bags are comes in handy. What was that Stitchawl was saying about old age and treachery?
