Back a few years ago when I was working there, there was a big promotion out which involved voucher books being sent to people's houses. Such as Buy a Mac get one free or something to that effect. Basically this is how it worked:

We was supposed to keep the vouchers given to us in our till. However, none of the managers cared if we didn't and they couldn't be arsed to filter through about a hundred vouchers when they cashed a till up.

Step 1: Ask to go on Window 1 (Or Whichever window takes the cash in stores)

Step 2: Whenever someone orders say, 2 big mac meals (or whichever voucher corresponds) and they don't have a voucher, put one through as a normal meal and one through as a voucher.

Step 3: Tell them the correct price of their meals (Usually around £6.50 or so for 2 Big Mac meals). The till would show half the price (£3.25 if that was all they ordered). Bit fiddly if they order a ton of stuff on top.

Step 4: Take their money, and either
a)Tally up how much you should take from the till and do it when no-one's looking
b)Slip the £3.25 in your pocket if you're good enough to do that. (I managed it but aroused suspicion once)

That's the gist of it. Now do this on a Saturday when there's the entire population of the town coming there.

Done it one Saturday and no kidding, walked out of there £425 and so and so pence better off. My till was up 32p and no-one was none the wiser.

Wouldn't be advisable to do it for every customer that doesn't have a voucher, as someone will click and look at their receipt.
Still good if you can do it though.

Length? The money could've paid for plastic surgery to fix that!

Haha yea that's what happened on occasions. But if it was a day where no co-worker kept popping their nose up every 2 minutes I would open my till, pretend to be adding pounds into my till and bagging them up (20 pound coins to one bag) and then drop that in my till and take a £20 note out. Had one manager once who asked me what I was doing and I cooly came up with (As luckily I'd been to the local bakers one day) 'Well i went to greggs and gave them a £20 note and they gave me £19 worth of change. I'm just changing it in the till if that's ok. Cash me up now if you want to see if I'm down.' He did and I wasn't. 1-0 to me Haha!
