Any savings are immediately gobbled up by mindless shareholders.

One thing that I had come up with some years ago...
Buy something on the self-checkout that causes the clerk to need to come over and scan his/her badge. Keep a small hidden camera somewhere down low and pointing upwards so that you can capture a picture of their badge. Print out your own badge and use it to ring up a bunch of $500.00 prepaid gift cards when the cashier is busy helping someone else(possibly have someone distract them). You would need to know the system and how to bypass and say that cash was collected as payment.
This could also be done at a large store like Walmart where there are usually dozens of unmanned cash registers. You could use a small hidden camera to collect an employees login and password. Then you could ring up a bunch of $500.00 prepaid gift cards, payment as cash.
The cashiers would need to be clocked in when you do this. Also, after a certain number of gift cards, the register would likely send a message to a lower level manager-type that would need to come collect the cash due to it being such a large amount.
Dressing up like an employee might help.
Hacking the stores system and then activating stolen gift cards would be better.
That's all for now.

self checkouts dont cause lower prices, sorry but not sorry that you have been debunked

Less staff = lower overheads, lower overheads = ability to price cut *OR* maintain current pricing/lessen price increases.
Greed.
The stores simply pocket the savings and maybe put it into advertising or other things.

The shareholders will gobble up those savings faster than an Ethiopian after a 30-day hunger strike.

I used to shop at Waldoworld at least twice a week before Aldi opened up nearby..now I go to Wallyville maybe once every 2 months.
corporations dont compete, they cooperate. youre as stupid as a run of the mill hillbilly who believes professional wrestling is actually real.
