Seen at Target a few months ago. I had the bad luck to be behind her in the queue...
There were some hand towels on sale, and this SC wanted to buy a whole heap of them and a bunch of other stuff (including a queen sized quilt). Instead of letting the CSR count the towels, scan one and enter the quantity, she insisted that he scan each one individually and make sure they all scanned at the sale price. This took enough time for my partner to leave the store, use a public restroom, and come back to find me still waiting in line.
But it gets worse.
Queen size quilts are too big to fit in the stantard sized disposable shopping bags. Quilt manufacturers are aware of this and package quilts in their own bags complete with handles. This SC demanded that the quilt be made to fit into a bag, when this proved impossible according to the laws of physics she then pulled out the "I just spent $400, the least you could do is give me some service!" line (how come they never thank the CSR for the $400 of merchandise?). She demanded that disposable bags be taped to the quilt bag "so people won't know what I bought".
It was at this point that another CSR got done rebuilding a nearby display that SCs had demolished and opened another register, so I didn't get to see how the exchange ended.

If she doesn't want other shoppers to see it as she's walking out of the store, well, then she's got issues.
