Around here you cannot use coupons without assistance, and each one needs a 3 button confirmation sequence.

Did you get 2 or more of the discounted breads? Whoops, those gotta get individually checked to make sure you didnt secretly duplicate the coupon! Grab the meat that expires next week for tonights dinner, which gets a lil price slash to make sure it sells? Nope, sorry, that one also needs to stop the cart and call for help too.

None of this in a regular stand, those scan coupons like normal. I guess theyre afraid I know how to make these discount codes at home?
