A Sydney student has faced court after scanning cashews and pistachios as bags of bananas at a self-service checkout.

Stefan Toth, 24, was caught during a random bag check at Coles World Square in the Sydney CBD in January.

His receipt said he had purchased four bunches of bananas, but a guard found one bunch plus a bag of raw cashews, some roasted pistachios and a pack of Tassal hot salmon.

Downing Centre Local Court on Wednesday was told the part-time metal worker offered to pay the difference but the three items were seized and police called.

Toth said he must have made a mistake when scanning, raising the eyebrows of police who saw he had managed to correctly scan brown onions, snacking tomatoes, four-leaf salad mix, dairy cheese and a tub of Philadelphia cream cheese.

He later pleaded guilty to fraud, apologised to the court and explained he had been intoxicated when taking the three items worth $28.95.

“At end of the day, you picked high-value items,” magistrate Jacqueline Trad said on Wednesday.

"If you can work it out, you weren’t that drunk.

“If you can’t afford the cashews, don’t try to buy them as bananas.”

Toth was given a one-year conditional release order without conviction.

Seems like an honest mistake

Thank god you explained . I imagine some bloke walking around Coles pantless , laying the family jewels' on the scanner .Was hoping it wasn't my local .

No, I should be quite clear on this...the behaviour you described is not permitted during this pandemic crisis for health reasons.

Normally though...quite acceptable.

I liked this one over Easters.

I laughed at the cartoon today with the startled passengers, as the pilot said "This is your captain speaking...I'm working from home today."

Love it!

This is a long way from the worst thread I've seen on here. You will find a similar one on most forums across the globe.

Where else can we put our silly coronavirus jokes?

Some Roosters fans could be Qantas flight crew.
Some Roosters fans could be Virgin staff.
All Roosters fans are navigating the pandemic.. fact that social distancing could be going for years to come...no. fans allowed at games
Some Roosters fans might be intending to go on cruises and without proper warnings get themselves into trouble.
Some Roosters fans could be affected by the govt spending misguided money on airline bailouts.

I thought it was all relative to the the thread title being where it is.
I would not deliberately set out to annoy forum members.

Love ya work BB!

I agree and can mods shut it down or put it into other discussion forum.

It's sounding like talkback radio only we have Bongon Boy as our shock jock....

Perhaps u could start up a separate thread Bongon Boy's Current Affairs discussion thread in other discussion.

Roosters discussion should be predominantly about Roosters footy, etc, we get enough info about Covid-19, and discussion on it on relevant social media, news websites, etc.

If we are to continue to talk about it, pls move it so it's not thrust onto the main page or for Christ sake close this thread down.....

BTW for me, this has been the worst thread ever....

Who thinks Aubo will go around again next year after this disrupted season?

And just to stay on topic. Corona the beer tastes like crap!

That beer has ceased production, think I read somewhere.

Someone here said Aubo looked slow in one of the two games we played this year...as I remember.

At the Panthers game someone held up a placard, captured by a tv camera, that read.

REAL
PANTHERS FANS
DONT GET
SICK.

I get it's a footy forum and that's why we are here but surely it doesn't matter were it's located , if you don't want to read it don't click on it .It's the most important issue the world is facing and has faced for generations after all
And with over 1k of replies I think most agree
