A woman buying fruit and vegetables was overcharged – because the shop assistant’s breasts were resting on the scales.
Jim Hopley, chief executive of Channel Islands Co-operative, said the assistant’s seat had been too low at the Jersey supermarket, reports the BBC. Mr Hopley said this had caused the shopper to be accidentally charged an extra £5, which had now been refunded. “It was an unfortunate incident. The poor lady involved was totally mortified, but the customer rightly was concerned about it,” he said.
