I live in the US. I go to the grocery store a few times a week, I’m a small trips kinda guy, and it’s close to my home. Nine out of ten trips are fantastic, but every so often you just come across a person who parks their cart sideways in an aisle, or parks next to one of the stupid fucking displays they put in the already-too-thin aisles. This is excluding, of course, folks who take stuff out of their cart and leave it anywhere, because either they don’t realize (or are to embarrassed, for some reason) that you can just leave it with a person up at the register. And at the self-checkouts I do, from time to time, see someone with clearly more than 20 items, though the store folks are good about not letting that happen.
I never go to Walmart, so I’m going to assume things are much worse there.
Yeah, I can remember one or two specific instances of people choosing the worst place to stop and have a conversation, but the reason I remember them is because they happen so infrequently. I might need to say “excuse me” every so often, or squeeze by someone who didn’t leave a lot of space, but it’s never inconvenient enough to warrant remembering.
I’m a big fan of saying excuse me and apologizing profusely with nice cheap words while smashing right through other inconsiderate people. Whoops sorry!
I live in the USA and it fine? Maybe its a walmart thing though I never go to walmart
Go to costco.
Extra cluster fuck challenge: go when they have samples.
