    It’s tied to the scanner so it knows nothing scanned, if you can stack two items and scan only one you can trick it, but the scale will pick up to much added weight so you gotta do something light. Clothes are good.

      If they’re anything like the scanners at giant, looking at the scale wrong throws it off.

      PLACE ITEM IN BAGGING AREA. UNSCANNED ITEM IN BAGGING AREA. Fuck off.

      My local store flagged me cause I had my coffee cup in the cart. It said, “you only scanned 5 items” and it thought I had 6 in the cart. I was a bit surprised cause I didn’t know it was that far of a view.

      Some have the skip bagging button so you can just leave stuff in the cart and use the zapper but I think most stores are getting rid of that as an option.
