Oh,I don't have enough money,what if I put this back,how much then,ok,what if I keep that and put this back,how much then? I know it says buy two get the second for half price but can I just buy the second one? You don't mind if I pay in pennies do you?

Oh god you just gave me a flashback to my days as a cashier.
I try not be judgy, sometimes people don't realize exactly what something's gonna cost w/tax until they were at the register but I STILL REMEMBER THIS ONE LADY WHO WAS, emphasis on WAS buying a heaping cartload of stuff one day.
Then she realized like, when I was done or nearly done ringing up allllllll this stuff that she did not have the means to pay for it.
I think I had to void this junk one item at a time until it got to something she could pay for.
Oh and a fair bit of it was frozen food that I had to put in the tote below the register and then take to the service desk to probably get trashed (stuff that could be put back whenever was but frozen food almost definitely was getting tossed b/c it'd melt obviously) later on.
THAT WAS SO OBNOXIOUS.
Like. I can understand someone mildly misjudging what their total cost is going to be but I swear to god this lady misjudged it to the point it felt like I was voiding half the stuff she'd unloaded from her cart before it got to where she could pay for it. She seemed embarrassed and I tried not to seem judgy b/c who knew what her situation was, certainly not me but man that was ridiculous.
Keep in mind it's been like, 9-ish years since I worked retail and I still remember that.
