Lol I hope the damn thing snaps in half. Luckily for my destructive side, they don't instantly open by themselves. They make you stand there waiting for it to detect you as a person most of the time, so without it even accusing you of thievery you still get an opportunity to ram it
I'm a bit too scared to go that hard on them, Coles deffo strikes me as the sort of company to somehow get cops to track you don't then try to sue you for the cost of the barrier (+ a 75% commission to the bosses mates who install them), so I think my game plan is to just gently but firmly nudge
As soon as I've paid for my groceries and swung my trolley around, I'm going through open or not.
That's a good approach to take. Now I'm not going to tell you the secret, that they swing open with virtually no force required, because if you knew the secret you've just lost your honest plausible deniability regarding the amount of force it takes! Sorry CEO, no secretes for you.
