You are third in the queue, the till one over has just opened and the sales person is beckoning you over. The person in front of you hasn’t noticed and is on their phone. Do you

  • Stroll to the front of the new queue. Ya snooze ya lose.
  • Tap the person in front of you on the shoulder and point towards the new till opening.
  • Do nothing.
  • Use the distraction as an opportunity to run out of the door of the shop without paying.
  • Say loudly “oh look, a new till has opened” to inform others nearby of the situation.
  • Take the phone from the person in front of you, say to it “they’ll call you back” then throw it on the floor next to the newly opened till.
  • Drop your shopping and leave the building due to the stress of the situation. Keep walking and never look back.

get to the till and the cashier is ringing up your stuff. you notice you’ve been charged full price on a punnet of grapes instead of the sale price as advertised. you:

  • forget it, i’m rich.
  • ask them to check the sale price and manually adjust accordingly despite probably inconveniencing them and your fellow shoppers

You notice that someone in front of you in the 10 items or less queue has far more than 10 items. Chances are, they’re going to queue and only get told to move on to another till. Do you:

  • Politely point out their error, knowing full well they might just ignore you anyway and try their luck
  • Just stay quiet, it’s their life and then get fully irate when the cashier serves them anyway

How do you think I got so rich in the first place?

IS THE CORRECT ANSWER

If you go back and get the item before the person in front of you has finished being served, you’re not losing any of your preciously short life, are you?

You’re heading to the till when you accidentally drop a full alpro vanilla yoghurt which smashes, caking your shoe and leaving a right mess on the floor. Do you do what I did and wipe the mess of your shoe and then leave an upturned basket over the floor mess alerting other customers of the hazard or do you do something else that I don’t really care about?

You go to the banana shelf to pick up a bunch of bananas. Upon arriving, you see only six single bananas sadly scattered around the expanse of the banana shelf, all are either bruised, split or overripe. You:

  • Commit hara-kiri
  • Ask a staff member if there are any more bananas “round the back”
  • Pull out the fresh unopened box of bananas they usually store underneath the banana shelf and feel like a hero, prick
  • Buy a bag of apples instead

Realistically, I would never notice this.

Anyone notice that if you sidle up to someone who’s at the same bit of shelf you need, staring at a product on the shelf, deep in thought, clearly been there a long time considering whether they want the item…

…that your mere presence snaps them out of their trance and they immediately move away and decide not to purchase it.

  • What?

I’d probably save face and go to an entirely different shop to buy said eggs

Recently i’ve started working through my list an item at a time rather than being a lemming and going up and down the aisles in order. It’s great. Annoys people and it’s quicker.

Bullet to the back of the head even if it’s eleven items and two of them are grapes.
