When I was working minimum wage at a gas station many eons ago, we would have ‘2 for $x’ specials where x is less than 2 times the individual price of whatever item.

People would often not want to buy 2, but I would ring up 2 in the till for the special price and charge them for the single. Then when the next person did the same, I would charge them for the other single.

So over the day, I would sell 10 energy drinks at say $4, but ring them up as 5 ‘2 for $6’ specials. This would put the till up by $10, and then I would use that $10 to have a free meal.

Anyone else do anything like that?

    That is playing with fire my dude. and i’m someone who slits the throats of businesses to make jobs tennable for myself and customers.

    Uhaul for example…I dont give two fucks if you committed a heist with one of their trucks and there was blood and bullet holes upon check it. ill just mark it in the system as prior damage and uhaul sends a mechanic to fix it. done…some uhual dealers are fucking douches tho, you’ll know because of the ‘prior damage’ stickers all over. fuck those gougers. Its free money for no effort, no reason to jam the customer up or take more time out of my day ‘inspecting’. that’s the job of uhauls mechanics.
