Not buying avocado that ripens in 3.23 days and goes bad in 3.56 days. You're on time out, avocado.
Careful with the self check shenanigans, especially at Target. They wait to let you know they know until you reach felony price totals and then have you arrested. https://www.paypath.com/Small-Business/why-target-is-the-worst-store-to-shoplift-from
Damn morality of shoplifting aside that should qualify as entrapment or something. At that point it's not about loss prevention, it's just petty revenge.
