SN, I really hope you are right about it being illegal now.
I'm remembering the retail workplace from the 60's and 70's, when clerks had direct responsibilities for their cash drawers.
For example, clerks had to "count back" the change out loud so both they and the customer knew it was correct.
Now of course, clerks only read the total off the POS computer and hand the customer a fist full of change, and so neither knows if it's right or not. This is where I find the mistakes being made.
