Go on. Have a vent. Get it off your chest. I'll go first.

People who pack their shopping at the till. There's a bench behind you. Just chuck it all back in your trolley or basket and take it to the bench to pack. Some of us just want to eat their sandwich before it passes its sell-by date.

And on a supermarket related theme, people who are obviously together but put their shopping through the till seperately including a few items for Granny who can't get out due to her lumbago and ulcerated legs. Just put it all through together and sort it out when you get home. It's not rocket science.

Moving over to the aisles now. The reduced section is full of shortbread fingers and they don't even say how much. All I know is that they're reduced, it tells me almost nothing

Self-service machines that shortchange you on top of unexpected. And seeing the person I was behind at one time walking out ...

Merchants who program the machines to round up your change ($12.05 will round up to $13.00) when using a card.
If you are paying cash and only have $12.00 and the item cost $12.05 they don't allow you to buy the item. frustrated

People that park in handicapp parking spaces and then run into the store not showing any form of disability.

In New Jersey the cops will give you a ticket if you park in a handicapp space because you don't have a handicapp placard displayed on your mirror or have the proper license plate.

In North Carolina the cops don't even bother ticketing people who have the placard and park in the handicapp space but run in and out of a store. I could understand that happening in a big city where cops are busy but where I live the cops are not very busy. It's not right that the cops don't even give these drivers a warning.
