Default Lidl growbags, checkout and bad backs.

Their growbags are 98p so we lifted them into the trolley, bought some fruit and
trundled round to the checkout. Normally ( at B&Q etc) they would use a hand
scanner but Lidls don't have them so offered to put onw on the conveyer and get
till to multiply by number of bags. No can do - shop rule - evrything has to go
on the conveyer, so all bags uloaded from trolley, passed over scanner and
loaded back into same trolley.
Duh!

I had the same problem at ASDA with 60 x 1L packs of long life milk.
Apparently unscrupulous customers mix and match similar looking items such
as 30 x 1L of cheapo skimmed milk with 30 x 1L of expensive full fat
freshly squeezed Yak milk.
The policy lasted only a few days.

I got six from Aldi, also 98p and I didn't have to take any of them
out of the trolley. The till operator manually keyed in the code.
