@neil
that said, I can't wait for all shops to implement self-scan booths (while still keeping a manned till too) so I can further reduce my interactions with shop employees, even if it will likely result in less job opportunities.
My grocery trips to the three stores here that have them have significantly improved because I can scan the items at my own leisure (and at #CoopOBS that's even more convenient, as they offer a hand scanner so I can scan the products as I put them in my basket, or even directly into my shopping bag! as well as directly see a sub-total), and immediately can see if a product has been mispriced. And paper receipts are automatically printed, as you need them to open the exit gates.
The only times I then have to interact with an employee (and risk either of us spreading a cold or worse) is if there's an issue, or if I get picked for a random check, or if I have an age-restricted product such as energy drinks. (For which I could register my thumb print at one of them I think, but it's not like I am going to volunteer handing over biometric data to a supermarket...) -

@Twelve no, "J'Adore"; the animal print ones were for a 50 or so at #CoopOBS for a pack of 5 or 6. Just like Brio they are made out of wood though, apart from the wheels, which are plastic + metal.
The cement truck is also wood, with metal axles for the wheels, and comes from #TGR aka #FlyingTiger and was 15 or 30 NOK; can't quite remember. Affordable at least for sturdy wooden toys that will likely survive more than one generation. :) -

@hjertnes
You might like this sign from #CoopObs as well then ;)
"Beachtruck 2 Ass" sounds rather painful though...

Now, I get that a smaller package has a more expensive unit price, but why would anyone buy the smaller package when it's *the exact same price* as the bigger package?
These two packages of #Bremykt spreadable #butter with rapeseed-oil both cost 28.40 NOK, even though they're different weights: 250gr and 390gr.
No wonder we're in a #foodWaste society...

Always love it when a #priceTag doesn't match up with a product. 😏
Over at #CoopObs #Bodø they apparently think that these children's #pictureBooks about #puppies and #kittens, and #dinosaurs are in fact the #Toro spice packages for a Bolognese dish and tomato soup: https://mastodon.social/media/QIZn6BusfCvBO4dKme4 😂🤔

Not to #kinkshame, but Beachtruck 2 Ass sounds painful ;)
