Cashier's boobs cause overcharging in a store

12 November 2010 [17:26] - TODAY.AZ
A woman has been overcharged when buying fruit and vegetables in a supermarket after the cashier's breasts rested on the weighing scales. The problem was discovered when the shopper queried the £1.95 price of a single green pepper at the Co-operative store in Jersey, the Daily Mail reports.

Chief executive of Channel Islands Co-operative Jim Hopley said: "The supervisor was called and it was resolved immediately.

"The young lady concerned was taken aside and the matter was sorted out. We have now adjusted the chair. We also checked the till receipt to see if anyone else had been overcharged.

"When the customer asked the supervisor what had caused the problem on the way out of the store, he told her the cashier's boob had been resting on the scale."

Hopley added: "I won't identify the cashier by giving her name or the branch of the store where it happened because it has been upsetting for her and it has had an effect on her.

"The HR department is helping her at the moment because it has been very embarrassing for her and she is mortified."
