There's nothing like the unique brand of stress that comes with using a store's self-checkout. Not only do you have to scan and bag everything by yourself, you have to deal with the whims of a temperamental retail robot and sometimes stand there for minutes at a time waiting for an actual staff member if things go wrong. Mistakes happen often, but they're not always unwelcome.
When @reecebrierley1 went to get groceries, he probably wasn't expecting any of his items to be alive. Yet in a video posted to TikTok, he reveals a feline companion sitting in the bagging area as he tries to take his items. While he is confused by the unexpected addition, the cat seems completely at home — and the machine doesn't even seem to register that it is sat there. It might not be the most hygienic of situations, but if bodega cats are anything to go by, it's not that uncommon.
