If that makes you feel better, then sure that is fine by me.

By far the most brilliant reply i've read yet. Correlating petty theft to rape. Absolutely brilliant kind sir. I totally get it and it makes absolute sense! Wanna be my rape spree buddy?

Never ever seen a Walmart with self check outs before. My local Walmart has an express lane of like 10? maybe 12 check outs in it. It can have a line up of 10 or so customers and push people thru there quickly. Maybe 3 - 6 clerks work there usually. Maxed out during shopping season. Sometimes the self serve check outs can have a line up 3 deep and take longer cause some guy has a cart full of crap. Or the machines are messed up and constantly need a person to reset them because the weight is off and such. Maybe Walmart is on to something? Good for them. Seems smart to me to remove them.

I just don't know how you find justification here. What are "Big Box Stores" doing to you? Are they bending you over like Big Pharma? Big Oil? Big Macs? At first we were talking about Superstore. What did Superstore do to you besides offer a service that you can choose to use? If you have a beef with Superstore or any other store that is too big, go find a fu**ing mom&pop grocery store to shop at.
Also, what's your problem with self checkouts? Maybe they're being offered as an alternative to folk like me who really don't want to partake in the "How are you today" "Fine, thank you" chit chat. I love the self checkouts because I don't have to talk to anyone, and I'm guaranteed not to have my bread crushed by a spaced out cashier. So how are these stores bending us over by offering an alternative?

I just don't get you. You're a petty thief, and you're proud of it. You're too cheap to pay what things cost, and you justify it by hating a company because it makes money. And you're not even entirely convinced that what you're doing isn't wrong, so you give a half assed excuse by saying that there are bigger problems in society. Yeah yeah, why bother with a thief at Superstore when there is a murder to solve, right?

Ok i'll clear that point up. What I am doing is wrong. However, I don't really give a ####. Don't want me to ring stuff in wrong? Don't give me a means to do it. I will take advantage of it.

If I found some magical gas pump that pumped 1.1 litres of gas and only charged me for 1 litre, i'll use it every time its convenient for me. Convenient being the key word cause that is what is happening. If I found a till in some pharmacy that charged me 10% less then what prescriptions cost, i'll try and find that till if its available, if it isn't i'll pay full price. I'm not out here to save a #### load of money, I just find it funny. Am I horrible human being for taking advantage of such things?.... Meh, I don't think so... You do, that is fine by me.

Its not a Robin Hood thing. It literally amuses me to do it.
