I once saw someone take, among other items of shopping, 35 tubs of youghurt (yes, I was so indignant that I sat and counted them, passive-aggressively, all whilst tutting) in the 15 items of less aisle.

The checkout bloke's face as he apologised for allowing her through was a picture

Then cook the juice into a reduction to go with grilled duck breast.

I verbally abused a self serve checkout in Manchester Airport, too.

All I wanted was a Wispa Gold and a Coke as well

Sorry. If it's any consolation, they're a major contributing factor to why I almost needed two seats on my flight home
