      And the register registers every sold item, so unless the cashier fakes the beep sound and the customer ignores the missing receipt, it won’t work since the till would be short. And even if the cashier bypasses the register entirely, they could keep change outside the till if they want to pocket money.

        If given exact change you can just cancel the order and pocket the cash you can still get caught if they ask for a receipt or if the inventory is short and they do a deep investigation.
