Belgian Supermarket, Part 3

I don't think all of the supermarkets are this way, but the one I usually go to has a specific way that you must prepare your produce. Most items must be weighed on the scale, and then you have to print out a sticker that has a bar code and the price of your produce on it.

I have had to learn a few tricks with this system, as it is not the same for every item. Most prepackaged items that already have a barcode on them do not need to be weighed. However, pineapples have turned out to be an exception. They usually already have a tag on them, but you must still weigh them. Kiwi (kiwis?) are sold by the piece, so you don't need to weigh them. It's kind of fun to print out that little sticker, especially for little kids who are interested in helping out at the grocery store. It's also good for finding out the price of your item, especially for big items like pumpkins. (I have seen limited numbers of pumpkins here.) I saw one huge pumpkin that was rejected...it was still in the store with a label on it already... The price said 15 Euros!! (a little over $20 USD) Yikes!
