A TikTok user has been slammed online for his mean ‘prank’ at a Coles supermarket to get himself free grapes.

‘I just didn’t want to be caught stealing. You know how it is.’
The checkout employee then informs the man that the grapes are too light to be detected by the register scales.
‘Well I can’t weigh them because it’s not enough to weigh,’ she s heard saying.
He responds by asking her if he can ‘eat them’.
The worker then looks around the store, seemingly confused about what to do, before telling the man again that she couldn’t weigh the fruit.
He then picks up the two grapes and tells her: ‘Just don’t say anything’.
The video was uploaded to TikTok and soon went viral online, racking up 6.5million views as of Wednesday.
