Secure the Supermarket Beginner Guide

This route follows the order visible in the analyzed PC run. The video cuts past the true opening tutorial, so the first confirmed step is the exit workstation.

PC walkthroughDay 1 observed
Quick answer

Run the exit loop before worrying about upgrades

Go to the exit scanning area, face a customer, and wait for the receipt. Compare every listed item with the basket. On PC, aim at PASS and press E when everything matches. If the customer carries an unlisted item, choose ARREST, use handcuffs, and take the thief to JAIL. Keep repeating that loop until the Day 1 GOAL is complete.

In order

Your first-shift route

Each step below is visible in the gameplay flow. The exact lobby-to-workstation tutorial is omitted because the source video skips it.

  1. 1

    Work from the exit scanning station

    Keep the current customer and basket in view while the receipt panel appears.

  2. 2

    Compare receipt names and quantities

    A matching receipt can have two or three listed items. Read the whole list before choosing.

  3. 3

    PASS a complete match

    Aim at the green PASS side and press E on PC.

  4. 4

    ARREST an unlisted item

    Aim at the red ARREST side and press E when the basket contains something missing from the receipt.

  5. 5

    Take the thief to JAIL

    Use handcuffs and complete the detention at the marked JAIL area.

  6. 6

    Repeat until the GOAL is met

    The day ends at DAY 1 OVER when the recorded run reaches its target.

Two outcomes

The first decisions to recognize

PASS

Receipt and basket match

The clearest early example lists Baguette x1, Flour x1. The basket shows the same items, so the customer is passed.

ARREST

The basket has an unlisted item

In the complete theft example, the receipt says No items listed but the basket contains Fish x1. The player arrests the customer and completes JAIL.

Cash snapshot

The screen showed +135 Cash for completing Day 1 and 180 Cash afterward. The reward formula was not tested across multiple runs.

Before spending

There is no verified best first purchase yet

The analyzed Day 1 does not show a purchase. The first fully readable paid class above Guard is Senior Guard at 750 Cash or 80 Robux, with 120 Health and a Raging Bull secondary. That confirms the option, not that it is the best value.

Learn the receipt and JAIL loop first. When you are ready to compare the four readable class cards, use the classes page.

Beginner mistakes that break the loop

  • Rushing the receipt: read the item list before looking at another customer's basket.
  • Using ARREST without a visible mismatch: the failed Day 5 example shows that customer mistakes can contribute to a lost run.
  • Leaving a detained thief at the exit: the recorded flow continues with handcuffs and JAIL.
  • Spending from an old price list: several Robux offers differ between the two analyzed videos.
FAQ

First-shift questions

Where should I go when the shift starts?

The analyzed run works from the customer exit and scanning station. Its true first seconds were edited out, so this guide begins at the first clearly observed workstation rather than inventing the missing tutorial path.

How do I earn my first Cash?

Complete correct customer checks and meet the day GOAL. In the recorded Day 1 run, the completion reward was 135 Cash and the balance shown afterward was 180 Cash. Those amounts describe that run, not a fixed current reward formula.

What should I buy first?

The footage does not establish a best first purchase. It shows Senior Guard at 750 Cash or 80 Robux, but does not compare its performance with other early choices. Learn the receipt loop before spending.

When does the class system unlock?

A class menu is visible in separate footage, but the videos do not tie its first appearance to a specific day or tutorial step.
