Insider tip from a Tesco employee
A Tesco employee has revealed a surprising secret about the self-scan trolleys.
According to the worker, random checks on customers using these trolleys are not entirely random.
The checks are actually triggered by a specific customer habit.
If you frequently pick up and put down items without scanning them, you’re more likely to be selected for a check.
This is due to the system detecting suspicious behaviour, which could indicate potential theft.
So, to avoid delays, it’s best to scan items immediately after placing them in your trolley.
Whilst someone else agreed: “Nahh this is too far.”
At the same time, someone else penned: “Naaaah at some point it’s selfish.”
Not only this, but another chimed in: “It’s Little Moons all over again.”
Meanwhile, one frustrated user questioned: “Swear these expire within three days?”
