I might be tempted to use the app, except it refused to let me sign in because of something funky with my loyalty card.

Plus, I kinda like going beep beep beep with the gun.

There is another shop I refuse to use the scanner gun at, because every time you scan, a really loud acknowledgement beep emanates from somewhere in the shop. I can only assume it's because 90% of their clientele don't use the scanners, and they assume anyone who does is a thieving scrote who needs to have eyes on them at all times.
