Re: KOSAR
Dude, i've tried that so many times and most of the time it just offends the person. I've basically stopped doing it.

SixFive said:or, how about this. A jerk like Kramer gets in front of you with about 20 bags of fruits and vegetables. Every one has to be individually weighed and coded in. Clerk then doesn't recognize the plantain and some other 2 foot long root looking thing and asks Kramer what it is. Kramer says, "I don't know". Runner then has to come over go over to produce and identify this frikkin' root.
lol- yup. You know when somebody in front of you has a wide variety of fruits/veggies, you might as well set up shop.

I cracked up just thinking about kosar walking "briskly" through the grocery store!:142smilie I just had thoughts of the 1 mile walk race at some Senior Olympic Classic.
gw--I guess I am one of those people that thinks everyone exists to please me, but when you are waiting for Johabi to count out 29 cents in change for your bananas, I'm halfway to my car stuffing my debit card back in my wallet. And no, there is no credit card debt here. It's called embracing technology.:tongue

Yup, GW, that's me, too. I'll apologize in advance for if we're even in the same store. I'd say I use my check card for about 98 percent of all purchases, whether it's $1.89 or $189.

Dawgball,
Don't let my leisurely gait fool you. I'm quick like a cat when need be.
lol- if you've spent any time down here in the land of 'if you're under 85, you're considered middle-aged', then you'd know that you're not far off with that picture.
Happened during football season
Happened during football season
Went into the local mini-mart store to get a case of beer and bag of ice during halftime. I walk up to the check-out and the line is only 2 people deep (no problem right?:nono: ).
The first guy in line a younger kid spends about five minutes counting out exact change to buy some candy (doesn't bother me, we were all young once).
Second person gets up there, (older lady) she has just a small container of milk. After ten minutes trying to figure out what scratch off lottery ticket to buy, she begins shuffling through here purse (the size = a carry-on piece of luggage). After realizing she didn't have the $3.86 for the milk and scratch off ticket she begin to write a check.
I have been holding the ice and beer for about 20 minutes when the cashier say "Miss, I'm sorry you wrote the check for $3.68 not $3.86....20 FAWKING cents. I scream no problem I have it just let me pay it. PLEASE LORD LET ME JUST PAY IT. Needless to say the older lady got offended say she has money to pay her own bills. Then began the history lesson about "in her day" blah, blah, blah. So began the pain staking process of rewriting the check for $3.86!!!!!!!!!
I get to the register, the cashier looks down, smiles and says........ "can I help you?" :shrug: Standing there with beer and ice in hand....What the hell do you think?:cursin:

We have self-serve checkouts in STL. There is never a line. The regular lines can be 4+ deep and you cruise over to the four self-serve kiosks and it's wide open. I never buy more than I can carry (unless Busch 30-packs are on sale), so I am in and out in stealth mode, dealing only with a machine and avoiding the idle chitchat.
I guess there is a weighting system as you scan each item it prompts you to place the item in the bag. I always wonder what would happen if I sneaked a bottle of Crown into the bag without scanning. People don't seem to be comfortable with the concept yet, like the airport self-check in was at first. In a few years we may not have the option of dealing with human checkers.
