Just as long as men can still use the ladies room there, then everything’s OK. /sacrasm

Remember the old days when a cashier ‘rang things up’ on a manual cash register, (or even with a pad and pencil and made change out a cigar box full of coins and bills), and could make change without a computer telling him / her how much to give?

A bit off topic, but their self checkout system is the worst I’ve ever dealt with. What a POS.

Sam Walton was visiting the store in DeFuniak Springs many years ago. The power went out and their cash registers had a manual option.
Walton joined the checkout using the levers until the power came back on.

On the other hand, it is Target, so I don’t care what happens to them, or the people who still choose to shop there.

Stranded at checkout is about like getting stranded on an escalator.
You leave your selected items and walk out of the store. No fuss, no muss.

Didn't this happen to Al Bundy when he had to get home to watch Hondo? And got locked in the store because of the power outage just as he was checking out?
