Ann Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 What things really bug you about waiting in the check out line at the supermarket??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamasbabygirl Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 When people take over the limited number of items in the Express Line-makes me so mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 I hate it when moms allow their little ones to pick up the candy and gum off the racks. Then, when mom says they can't have it, the kids go off like a siren. I know it's hard to monitor the little ones while unloading a grocery cart. Believe me when I say I've been there and done that. But...I wish stores would get a clue and put all this stuff up high out of little hands reach!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Wood Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 What bugs me most in the express line is the person who has several different discounts that have to be put in (no problem with coupons, they are fast scanned); then they write a check, but, of course, at that point, they are trying to find it in their purse, and then they have to show ID, and it has to be approved. So much for "express". I think these people should go in the regular lines. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 Oh Don...I'm really with you on this one. It seems like I go through this a couple of times a month. I always seem to land behind someone who is writing a check and then searching for ID. Oh..also love it when they have to fill the check out at the last minute. Would help so much if they had the name of the store, date and sign the check already filled out! But...I never use checks too much anymore. I can't live without my debit card.

tnmynatt Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I hate the people that ask for cigarettes at the last minute and they have to go get them somewhere. One lady recently decided she needed a second pack after they got the first one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ry Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I hate it when the store lets the lines get too long. I get irritated when they don't open up lanes when they see people backing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.C. Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I hate to see the person in front of me unload all her items and wait till the cashier has finished the bill to say ''Could I get a few items I forgot?'' and here goes the person to do more shopping while you wait in line. jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginnyde Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Okay, here goes. I pick up a can of tuna. I put the can in my cart. I take it out of my cart. I put it on the conveyer belt. I put it in my bag. I put the bag in my cart. I take the bag out of my cart. I put the bag in my car. I take the bag out of my car. I put the bag on the kitchen counter. I take the tuna out of the bag. I put the tuna in the cabinet. 12 steps for 1 can of tuna. This is why I hate grocery shopping. So just about anything in the check out line annoys me.

RandyW Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 The cost of the groceries!!! DEb and I used to have so much fun shopping together. We could laugh hysterically at anything. Now it is not nearly as much FUn to do!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharonjo Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I'm with you Ginny, I hate just about everything to do with grocery shopping - especially the long lines when there are only a few registers open. Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindi o'h Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 The worse thing for me while waiting in line, is the guys always trying to rub up against me... geez I hate that. What. Do you want my BAW-DY? Cindi o'h Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jyoung20 Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 rude cashiers... they don't say hello or thank you.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dchurchi Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I am with Ginny, the minute I cross the threshold I hate every minute of the grocery store. Alan used to do all the shopping, and love him, but he is a royal pain in my backside when we go shopping. I am in and out, but my man insists upon going up and down every asile at a snails pace. By the time we are done I am in need of a valium!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I think it's the Cashier that alway's seem's to screw up there register and it take's a act of god to get it functioning again..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debi Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 All of the above.. but I have to admit that the worst of all the evils mentioned is the one when they don't have their checkbook out and the check filled out. I mean, is this a SURPRISE?? Yes lady, you.. surprise surprise, you actually have to PAY for your freakin groceries!!!! Thanks Don and Ann, now my blood pressure is up...

michelepal Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I hate when they don't have someone to bag the Groceries!!! I don't think the customer should have to bag there own Groceries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryanne Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Come on Cindi, you love when the guys do that... admit it now I hate those tabloids.... crazy titles. And I hate when they feature my soap opera on the cover, then I have to buy it. Also express lines suck most of the times.. they always seem to need a price check of something. Makes me crazy when people could not bag their own when they only have a small amount in express. Maryanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamataca Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Every Mom has had a child melt down in line. That isn't what drives me crazy. It's the moms who don't know how to count to 3, but think they are parenting as they scream, "YOU PUT THAT CANDY DOWN...1, 2,...I MEAN IT...1, 2...I SAID 'NO', DON'T MAKE ME GET TO THREE...1, 2...." It's three lady! We can't wait to see what happens next... Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
