Not sucky, just brain-farty. Two from today. The first:
Woman and her adult? teenage? daughter come to the cash register with a cart full of stuff.
Total is $51.01 They have the loyalty coupon good for $10 off a $50 purchase that starts today. Total is now $41.01.
Woman hands the cashier a dollar bill and a penny.
*beat*
*beat*
Daughter speaks up. "Moooooom! You owe them $40 yet! Did you really think you were going to get two bags full of stuff for a dollar?"
Woman finally wakes up, takes back her $1.01....
and writes a check for the purchase amount of $41.01.
This happens as the other open checkout lane is being taken up by a lady buying over a thousand dollars worth of stuff. So the managers on duty are attending to her, bagging her purchases and loading them into her four shopping carts, and then barking over the PA for backup cashiers.

Another woman comes to the service desk with an alarm clock, which she says doesn't work because it's stuck on 12:00.
Service desk girl takes the clock and finds that it is showing 12:00 as the time....because the 12:00 sticker attached to the clock face hasn't been removed.
Service desk girl removes the sticker and tells the woman she should be good to go. Woman decides she wants to return it anyway.
