Market watch...

So, I select five small on the vine tomatoes at a local Tops market. I take them to the only digital scale which does not work. The produce dude and the manager, plug and unplug the thing, which has no on/off switch... Nothing.

I look around for those hanging produce scales. "They took them out," produce dude tells me.

I put them in my basket. At the counter, the young lady rings them up. The price is $6.90, for five small tomatoes. Dah fuk? I tell the young woman that I don't want them, and apologize like those memes suggest Canadians do. She acts like I asked for her last kidney. I explain about the lack of weighing devices.

She then placed a gallon of skim in a bag that was completely split, end to end. Because I was sent from the future to screw up her day, I asked that she re-bag the milk. She handed me a bag to complete the task myself. I couldn't get the bag open. She finally handed me an opened bag, as she and the cashier from the next lane smiled at each other. I guess I am funny without trying.

In addition, they over-charged me for the bread that I accidentally left on the counter in my attempt to get out of their as quickly as possible. 

I know they aren't Wegmans, but they could and should at least try.
