it is neat

The first time I've seen USCAN was when I lived in New Orleans about 2 years ago. Now, in TN, we have it everywhere, at all the major grocery stores. The way they check for dishonesty here is that everything that you scan has a weight, you lay it on a platform as you're bagging it, and if the weight doesn't match up, it tells you to scan it again. For instance if you have two boxes of cereal and you scan only one, and put both of them in your bag, it'll detect that you have more than one box. Hey, I am a broke college student, you know I had to at least TRY. The only thing I don't like about it is the little old people who take an hour and a half to scan a pint of milk and a loaf of bread because they don't understand how to use the machine, and then some sales associate has to come and do it for them, I'm like, what's the point in that? Just get in the regular friggin line.
