I used to love shopping at Wal Mart, but then I moved here and the Wal Mart is either gross or in such chaos that shopping there is extremely stressful. And after Katrina, things have only gotten worse. I only go in dire circumstances. Last night was one of those times...A few things I noted last night:
1. Common curtesy (or safety) would dictate that if a large woman is walking briskly through the aisle, shoving your basket in front of her is a bad idea. Especially is she's carrying something.
2. If your children cannot behave, then leave them at home.
3. Don't throw away stinky diapers in the trash can next to the milk. The combination of smells is revolting...this is also a note to the management at Wal Mart that if you have stinky trash can--remove the litter EVEN IF the bag isn't full to over flowing!
4. Smelly fish do not entice shoppers to actually buy it.
5. You don't actually have to check the date on every single yogurt to find out which one is the "freshest." If it's in date go ahead and get it!
6. In relation to #2...if your child is misbehaving, giving him/her sticky, chewy, or drooly candy is a really bad idea.
7. When shopping with your partner, it looks bad on you when you call him an asshole.
8. If you don't know if you can afford all 300 items in your cart, bring a calculator and do the math BEFORE you get in the checkout line. It is NO fun to have to wait while the checker credits you back for 1/2 of your stuff.
9. Wal Mart, PLEASE hire more checkers. Standing in line for 45 minutes does not entice me to buy more bubble gum (even if there are freshly chewed pieces sitting right there on the rack for me to see).
10. An finally, checkers, please learn your produce. Limes and key limes are not the same thing!
