You can do it with bread rolls. Bell peppers is a popular one for me. It makes no sense to me why the green ones are cheaper. I like the rainbow effect in my basket, so I pay only the green price. I don't buy organic vegetables and fruit but if I did, I wouldn't be paying extra for it.

One trick I used to do was put cat food on the bottom rack of a shopping cart. Sometimes the clerk scanned it, sometimes they didn't. I just purchased a full cart of ####, my bad I forgot the bag of cat food. /shrug.

FYI, yellow/red peppers are green peppers that are further ripened. The red peppers are the most expensive as they ripen the longest.

To summarize, you justify your stealing by being ignorant of the facts.
