Just another case of when is enough enough. Just because you got away with it the first 100 times doesn't mean you keep doing it forever. Dude should have been less greedy and realize someone will catch on eventually. What i wonder is why did he pick the mac n cheese as the only item? I would imagine it wouldn't matter what item it was so what was the logic.

They should pay people enough to live and this wouldn't happen.

Ah yes cuz that’s certainly the issue. Definitely can’t be the person being a pos taking the money for drugs, just because, or other reasons

If it's what went on at the subway down the street when i was a teen, this "trick" requires you to remember the prices and tax of an item. He was probably only smart enough to remember the one item's price or didn't care to change it up.
