Just curious, were you buying a bakery item, that is mix and match? Those items don't have have codes, and they circle it in the receipt.

Don't take it personally. In recent years Vermont has had high retail theft rates, both in terms of frequency and $ value. It sucks because 99.9% of the population here are honest enough to literally correct an under charge, but many stores across the state have become targets for theft-- Costco, Walmart, Shaws, Hannafords, Home Depot, Lowes, etc. all now have new loss prevention strategies because of how often stuff was disappearing. Just a couple years ago whole carts full of expensive stuff were being wheeled out of big box stores-- surveillance video was ending up on the news with pleas for help and everything. So, now the checkouts are a little slower. It sucks especially because it's Vermont, but the policies are no more extreme than NY/NH/MA/CT etc.

Redditors on their way to comment "Who?" On a post instead of doing a 30 second google search.

Usually Thats reserved for any reddit post about a musician that isnt white or kanye. But I guess wanzer is deserving of them today.

He was this sort of local celebrity for a little bit here, he made these fun little movies about local issues and whatever. I didn't always agree with him and sometimes my brains was too old and slow to keep up with his zoomer editing style but they were fun and he's a nice guy. It's a shame he's going to jail and won't be making his movies anymore.
