THE 1 – 10 ITEMS OR LESS SCAM

The 1-10 Items or Less Scam.  Evidently people can’t count.  The 1-10 items cashier was designed to allow customers with fewer items not to be penalized and standing in a line where other customer had 20-30 items.  But you forever have someone who doesn’t play by the 1-10 rules.  It’s not a crisis if they sneak 1 or 2 extra items, but it’s the moron who starts unloading his basket of 15+.  The cashier reminds this person, who goes into the whole “confused’ routine, but still agrees to process his order.  I suspect a scam and I deduce other customers can be found all over town committing “THE 1-10 ITEMS SCAM”!

Self-bagging at the “lesser expensive” grocery stores for me is nerve racking to say the least, and requires great talent, at which I do not possess.  I am slow bagging my groceries and will acknowledge it.  I typically get that smile-hurry-up look from the cashier that I am holding up the line, as she processed the customer behind me, and waiting for the next customer’s groceries after that.  Meanwhile, I’m sweating profusely.  All of this over groceries?  My wish is to return back to the olden days when they bagged your groceries in nice paper bags; sometimes even carrying them out to your car.
