I should explain my previous post...this really happened quite recently. Man in court for scanning nuts as bananas
A Sydney student has claimed he made a mistake when he scanned raw cashews, roasted pistachios and salmon as bananas at a supermarket self-serve checkout.

A Sydney student has faced court after scanning cashews and pistachios as bags of bananas at a self-service checkout.
Stefan Toth, 24, was caught during a random bag check at Coles World Square in the Sydney CBD in January.
His receipt said he had purchased four bunches of bananas, but a guard found one bunch plus a bag of raw cashews, some roasted pistachios and a pack of Tassal hot salmon.
Downing Centre Local Court on Wednesday was told the part-time metal worker offered to pay the difference but the three items were seized and police called.
Toth said he must have made a mistake when scanning, raising the eyebrows of police who saw he had managed to correctly scan brown onions, snacking tomatoes, four-leaf salad mix, dairy cheese and a tub of Philadelphia cream cheese.
He later pleaded guilty to fraud, apologised to the court and explained he had been intoxicated when taking the three items worth $28.95.
“At end of the day, you picked high-value items,” magistrate Jacqueline Trad said on Wednesday.
"If you can work it out, you weren’t that drunk.
“If you can’t afford the cashews, don’t try to buy them as bananas.”
Toth was given a one-year conditional release order without conviction.

In the media today is detailed that on a packed flight from Sydney to Bris earlier this week there was a passenger who has Covid-19.
Charming.
How on earth did that happen?
1. Social distancing?
2. NRL players flying around? Roosters players flying around?
3. Qld teams flying to Sydney?
Couple (team b.b for example) can't leave the house in a sealed car, sit atop a hill and view the ocean from the sealed car, lest we get fined $1000 each...yet people are packed into plane/s with infected passenger/s..officials now running around trying to tell/find all the passengers.Last edited by bondi.boy; 04-17-2020, 10:56 AM.

What's with all the hand sanitizer?
Everywhere I go it's "wash your hands with sanitizer".
I've washed my hands so much that the answers to my 1963 maths exam are showing!
