Scan & Scram

Something that university/college students do in order to get the attendance marks for lectures/tutorials/seminars/lessons that they never attended. They can the attendance scanner outside the room their lesson is in with their student ID, the system marks them as present and they leave and go home or somewhere else other than the lesson. Smart teachers/lecturers will not allow this to happen and will manually change it to absent once they notice the student isn't there.

Scram is an informal word for leave or go away.
Student 1: You can afford to miss another lesson mate.
Student 2: Don't worry. I'll just Scan & Scram, I'll be fine.

Sleight of scan

The method by which one steals items from a store by means of the self-checkout register.
Common practice includes scanning an inexpensive item while bagging a near-identical but more costly one, only partially weighing items, or otherwise misrepresenting the count.
Guy1: "Why pay 99¢ for those gourmet, grocery store bagels when a little sleight of scan can get them for the 59¢ doughnut price?"

Guy2: "Dude, seriously? It's forty cents..."
