Gotta Be Over 18 to Buy Cooler Coating

 Have you gone recently to a big box store, like lowe's, and go to checkout and find there are no checkers and no checkout booths?

Except for self checkout. There are 4 of those.

Except 2 of them say you can only use a card to pay. The other 2 say cash and card. Can't wait for the day they all say card only.

Yesterday I went to lowes and at self checkout there was a pretty young thing to help.

First thing I did was tell her I should write to corporate demanding a 25% discount since I had to check myself out.

She just looked at me.

Got everything scanned except one pvc fitting. She had to manually enter the scan number to get it to work.

Went to pay and the screen lit up and said make sure customer is over 18 to buy this product. She tapped the screen before I could see what it was.

Turns out it was this:

I swear. Govmint is going to protect us to death.

  1. Yeah, well one of the reasons why you have to "age check" that stuff is due to all of the "graffiti arteeeeeeests" that populate inner cities. Seems that our betters/elites thought that they could hinder those arteeeeeests by hindering who could purchase the cans of paint.
    Kinda sounds like their arguments for "gun control"
    Hindering the purchase of those cans of paint really stymied the local arteeeeests, didn't it?

  2. They actually expect them to PAY for them?
