I have to go grocery shopping, I don't want to. Ugh.
Ten Reasons I Hate Grocery Shopping:
1. I always end up with the broken wheel cart, the one you don't really discover thats it's broken until you get a ways in the store and realize that it's pulling to one side. It always seems to get worse the longer I shop until towards the ends I'm constantly trying to keep it from veering off into an end cap.
2. Nobody else seems to like shopping so everyone is moody and feel like they have the right to sit in the middle of the walk way so you can't get around them. Then they give you the "go ahead and say something to me" glare and you become scared that they are about to pull out a gun so you end up just turning around and going the other way even though you need something at the end of that isle.
3. Very large people with TWO shopping carts LOADED with pop and bags of chips and sugary cereal and ice creams and Punch and frozen pizzas. That might be why they have weight problems.
4. The death smell of the pop can return section. Ew... it smells so bad and if you have to return stuff you have to breathe through your mouth and you always end up sticky.
5. Very large people who ride around on one of those electric carts. Get up and walk for crying out loud you need to walk and they have family members pushing a caravan of carts full of pizzas, chips, pops, junk behind them. Grab a bag of apples.
6. The eeeeextremelyyyyy slow checker who tricks you. You look in their lane and think if you get in line you'll be next, what a deal but nooooooo... nobody chose that lane for a reason. They all know thats the slow checker and you'll be there forever. That person checks in slow motion, takes five years to check the codes off of fruit, forgets simple things and needs the manager, pulls out paper towels and starts wiping things down in the middle of checking you out, and starts talking to "bob" as he walks by while you are just standing there with three children and melting ice cream.
7. The deli workers who ignore you while you're standing there just wanting a pound of honey ham. They keep on stirring this, checking the chicken, getting more bags out while you just stand there and wait and wait and wait with melting ice cream.
8. Workers that never seem to be in the isle when you want to get something off the top shelf but all of a sudden 17 of them are in the cereal isle with a million boxes all over the floor in front of the mini wheats which you need to stay regular so then you need to play obstacle course.
9. The 50 million coupon lady that insists that she uses them all and by golly call the manager because I know that one is good for this product even though it's two different brands and I'm mad if I don't get 10 cents off and I'll just wait for them to come and over ride the cash register so I can get that 10 cents off and I don't care if the girl behind me is whacking her head into the magazine rack and that her ice cream is melting.
10. Getting all the way to the front of the store and then realizing that you forgot something in the back of the store so you have to turn around and go alllllllllll the way back because it's always something that you really need, the reason you even went to the store in the first place or even worse realizing you forgot something when you get home so you have to go back to the store the next day to pick it up. Thats the worst thing ever.
Yeah, so I'm venting about grocery stores today. These things happen at all gorcery stores at all times, you just can't escape them no matter how hard you try.
