Was the checkout woman diddling the shop?

On two occasions but over a couple of weeks I have given the correct money (?1.50 for an egg sarny - great value BTW) to a checkout person (at Pret both times) and seen the figures ?18.50 on the till when it is rung in, as if I have given a ?20 note. Does this suggest that the checkout person is pulling a fast one on the shop? Both times I knew that the person before me had purchased more than something costing ?1.50. (Yeah, I know - both the other customers before me could have paid for something costing ?31.50 with a ?50 but that is not very likely.)

It wouldn't make any difference, if the woman keyed in the wrong 'proferred note' then the 'change' displayed is as the idle wind and when tilling-up at the end of the day, it should be heedeth not.


Not like back in the day when I worked in the retail trade, 'buncing', string attached to the till release and of course the old double receipt book.

Among many of the small violins that were played, and played...


Not that I condone it, mind. But a little light boasting'll do.
