Has anyone got any idea how these Devil's scrotums work?

In theory you scan the item and place it on the scales.

The scales reject the item. You try again. The ******* thing then allows 4
items through before rejecting the 5th item and freezes up. And never try
to buy dowel using one unless you want large dowel and intend to shove it
up the managers arse when the machine goes wrong.

Not a bad setup.

No tills open and 3 staff watching the 4 self checkout machines. Make that
two staff available when one of them went to find someone that could allow
me to buy my items.


Never, ever try and pay by by trade card at one of these. I made the mistake
of going in to my local B & Q after the trade desk had closed for the day.
Not only do you get all the above problems but you then are faced with a
spotty oik who doesnt know how a trade card works and, once he had it
explained to him then announces he 'needs to go and find a pen'. Priceless
