Ser Scot A Ellison Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Do you have to choak down the urge to ask if they forgot to count.:grumble: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woofless Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 No, not really. But 25 items would.I would give them a bit of leeway, but not a whole lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigima Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 I don't care if they're slightly off. If they're way over I want to strangle them with the sausage links in their cart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCon's Red Beard Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 That's nothing. Today in the "only 5" lane there was a family of three that took every one less than five things. They were in front of me. How much of an asshole you can be? Just because you're a "senior" citizen? ASSHOLES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Scot A Ellison Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 I freely recognize that this is quite the "first world problem"'. It's just an irritant that if you complain about it in person makes you the asshole.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Walker Texas Ranger Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 How do you count stacks. Do 5 gallons of milk count as 5 items or one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Scot A Ellison Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 Each wraped item is one item. Three packs of chicken, three items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seventh Pup Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Every item that must be scanned separately counts as it's own item. So a 12 pack is one item because it only takes the cashier one swipe to ring it up. Twelve individual bottles of wine are 12 separate items. This is one of my pet peeves. If your with in a few items, fine what ever, but some people just really abuse the system. This is especially true of the store nearest my house that always has long lines. There's always one guy who seems to not see the "10 items and under" sign and has a whole freak'n cart full of stuff. I have only said something once, it didn't help and I felt like an ass after words. Truly first world problems, but still annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But nooooo... other people before me wanted to pay their bills there, make use of their coupons and blah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littlefingers In The Air Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 If you have more than 15 bags in the 10 or less, it is as polishgenius says. Murder should be legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempra Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Generally agree that this should be a murderable offense. However, I have been in situations where I was waiting patiently with a full cart of items in a regular lane and then was flagged over to the express lane. I would hate to be murdered in such a situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littlefingers In The Air Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 We are a civilized nerdom. Surely, we can just act like we didn't see you in that case, Tempra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Mac Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 That doesn't get me too peeved, though I don't go to the supermarket all that often. However, I do often think "get the fuck outta my way" when I'm there because apparently people forget how to walk correctly. And carts just make it worse.

Summah Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Usually it's the checking out and paying part not scanning that takes the longest, 15 or even 25 items is probably not going to make the line run a lot slower with an experienced cashier if the customer isn't using coupons or WIC (and anyone complaining about people using WIC is really an asshole). I often find that the line with less people in it is usually faster even if those people have full carts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MercenaryChef Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Scot, have a scotch, sit on the porch, take it easy, man. Or turn on the news and find something to really get wound up about. Still have a glass of scotch though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
