This specific store is quite small and doesn't have them.

I rarely use them when available simply because the time factor is generally more than the cashier. If there is no line, I can bag and pay in less than two minutes ($45 typical order). This can never be done at a self-checkout.

It does not amaze me.

At least the fat old broad didn't forget anything.

Trivial stuff? That sounds like a major PITA event to me.

I'm not sure what I would have done, but I could not muster that much patience in such circumstances.

Brian done good.

Annoy a Liberal, Read the Constitution

I am guilty of grocery store line profiling. I can normally pick out the people in line that would have a higher chance of some problem in line. You know who they are.
Pick the other line.

Guilty as well.

However, this broad wasn't immediately apparent as to her actions (because of her location at the far end of the belt) until it was a fait accompli.

You did good. At that point, all you can do is put on the ole fake smile and get through the ordeal without an altercation. Life is easier that way.

Yep. I commiserated with the cashier and the woman in front of me after the old broad departed. The fact that this woman had a young girl with her also weighed heavily on not making a situation.

I pity your simple life. If you think this is a 'major PITA event' in life then you ain't seen nothing yet.

Clk's Ebay Stuff BUY SOMETHING NOW!!!

Out "east" on Lawn Guyland?

Honestly, if I were home in NYC, I'd have walked out and had the groceries delivered or just gone somewhere else. Life's too short to put up with numbskulls. This being said, the local Fairway isn't bad since it generally has quite a few cashiers open, and a hyperactive little lady directing traffic to the next open register on busy pre-holiday nights. So rather than individual lines, you end up with an semi-amorphous blob of people being passed wherever it's fastest for them to go -- works pretty well.

This is why Amazon is the best place to shop. You don't have to deal with annoying people.

...........the milk and the roast beef might not travel all that well.............wonder if they give free shipping?

Actually, it's Blue Point, but I understand that you can't spell.

Going someplace else will consume way more than 12 minutes. Another action without consideration of the lost time.

Amazon is getting into the grocery business out in CA, if it does well they will roll it out nation wide.

I just bought an Iphone charger on Amazon, vs running down the road to an electronics store. Two clicks and in two days its on my front porch...not having to deal with morons...priceless.

I don't have that kind of patience to wait two days

Not sure if I'm down with ordering groceries either. At least as far as fruits, veggies, and meats, I like to see and smell what I'm buying. Plus sending out for a bottle of OJ when I ran out and want some OJ, beer, or whatever now, runs into the patience thing. Nor do I have the sort of planning ability.
