RALEIGH, N.C. — Shoppers at a Harris Teeter supermarket in North Carolina’s capital city have gotten a
very big break on their bills.
WRAL in Raleigh reports (http://bit.ly/1En8IhS) the cash registers at the chain’s Cameron Village store
crashed on Friday. The station quoted a store manager as saying his team tried for 15 minutes to reboot
the system at the checkout lines.
When their efforts failed, the manager decided the shoppers had waited long enough and allowed them to
get their orders free of charge. Anyone already standing in line was allowed to leave without paying.
It’s not known how many shoppers enjoyed the windfall.
Harris Teeter spokeswoman Danna Jones said she had no details on what caused the outage.
