FYI
The pop up ad came at the end of the graphic explaining the trick. I am a slow reader and had to rewind and pause to read it.

Hmm, I wonder if the fact that our money is colour coded here in Canada would make any difference. I would think so as the bills would be easier to keep track of.

INFORMATIONAL USES ONLY

aka, if you get caught doing this, you cant blame us, lol
really though, great information for anyone who works at a register, very interesting on how easy it is to confuse people.

aint even watched it and I know what it is. haha.

[mrtankard]

I'm not saying I have any prior experience with this, but it's devilishly easy on stoners.

[rabidbadger]

(yep, I was right)

Yep, I was right. Actually, the way Brian presented it is def describing how NOT to fall for it. I was in line at the store a few weeks ago, and one cashier was telling the other how this had just happened to him. Never saw him there again. So it's good to inform the young audience about this, and Brian gives good advice to cashiers how not to fall for it. Public Service, if you ask me.

Also in Canada we have Loonies (1$) and Toonies (2$) coins as apposed to paper money, I wonder if that would make any difference.

So Brian I think it's time you came up here for some winter scamming.

[rabidbadger]

Eh, you Canadians are too smart to fall for this stuff.
