Archived Can I check out family?

As long as you don't allow them to do shady stuff, like mega couponing, and they don't try to use your discount, we're not going to care if your family goes through your line.

At my old store, a cashier asked me about this and the only thing I could say was "well they either go through your line or they leave without paying so yeah sure why not? TEAM I NEED BACKUP PLEASE."

Wow, I never knew this was against policy apparently. My momma came through my line all the time. Ain't nobody give a shit. Especially when I got her to sign up for the debit REDcard through me!

Now we had a Food Ave TM who was giving her mom, dad, kids, aunties and uncles and shit, the whole damn family reunion a bunch of discounts. I guess I could see why it would potentially be a problem, but I don't think the solution is to make it against policy to ring up family. My mom would have been pissed w/ me if I'd have told her "Sorry, but it's against policy for me to help you." Lol!

My mom would be the same, and since she knows a lot of the managers since she worked with them, she'd ask for them by name and complain probably.

Idk, but I don't do it. My mom avoids my lane just in case it's ever an issue. One night I closed alone as a cashier though so I rang her up.

Only if your sister is really hot

Don't forget the cousins.

Whether it's against the rules or not I'd avoid it. It's just asking for trouble. A Redcard application (and just an application) is probably ok, I cleared it with my ETL-AP before my mom signed up.

The couple times this has happened to me (parents dropping me off/picking me off when I open/close and they need something and I'm the only cashier) I've called the GSTL over and had them ring them up.
