Don't use credit/debit if you're taking some extra items through self checkout. Be sure to only use cash. Also, most self checkout have cameras, so make sure you give them a good performance when you accidentally forget to scan an item or two.
Most grocery stores will offer plastic bags at the groceries aisle for you to bag tomatoes, apples, etc. If you wrap them well enough, they won’t show up on the camera. If you get marked due to weight discrepancy, 99% of the time the front end worker probably has to watch 2-3 lanes bu themselves and don’t have time to play hero because 5 other people got their self checkout locked with false positives.
