I always just walk by. I’ll walk around a line of people waiting because frankly I didn’t go through the self-checkout to stand in a line. They usually don’t even say anything but one time a (young) lady yelled “ok stealers!” at my partner and I. It was hilarious.

Once I pay for the stuff our interaction is over. I gathered everything up, I paid for it, I bagged it; our interaction is done. If you think I stole something call the cops.
