Tim has shared his grocery store experience. Now I must share mine.
I was waiting to pay for groceries at my local supermarket and decided to record the sounds being made by the price scanning device used by the cashier (that's not me in the picture, by the way. Tucking your shirt in to go shopping? Are you freaking kidding me?).
Well, the lane I was in was definitely beeping an A5, though you can hear a scanner in a nearby lane happily chirping a C6.

I cashier at a grocery store, and all our scanners beeped at a slightly flat Eb (which was a handy reference if I was trying to practice my voice lesson stuff while ringing people up). A year or so we got new ones, which will beep any of the first three scale degrees plus an almost augmented fourth sometimes. I now have Three Blind Mice stuck in my head constantly...
