Varies, prepack apples probably won't have a weight but will have a size
range and a quantity, most people buy apples by the size and number
rather than weight. Prepack Green beans, carrots, parsnip etc etc are
weight marked.

Back when Sainsbury's used to have scales that allowed you to
print a price label for bags of loose items,

I think there is a legal requirement for there to be scales available for
use where ever there is anything loose sold by weight. Might not be a
label printing device and there may only be one which you have to hunt
for. Try looking in the fruit and veg section where everything is
pre-packed and as far from any loose stuff as possible.
