You want to try Aldi or Lidl  :o Scary!

I failed to pack my carrier bag as fast as the stuff was flying through the till at the weekend. Thought I was done for! Then I tried to pay with a credit card. Fancy that!

Thats why i shop at Tesco, The chicks are better, they show you a quick peek down their top occasionally, bend over alot in the aisles for you. It deffinately worth shopping in Tesco.

If any of the lass' in our Asda did it i might be phyically sick!!!

that made me chuckle.   The Lidl near us has extra long conveyor belts for some reason.  If everything doesn't work in sync you can get some interesting pileups ;D

Our one has extra short ones (downstream of the till) so if you don't pack it up quickly enough it gets pushed onto the floor by the next bloke's shopping coming through and hard luck if it's breakable.

Seems they aren't allowed to let up in the slightest. If the till doesn't go "bip" a couple of times a second they probably get marched out into the car park and shot for losing money.

a shopper at the checkout infront of me wasnt too happy tonight, I was buying 3 items, all tills were rammed apart from one, this guy had loads of shopping and he kindly let me go in front of him :y

the lady scans my 3 items... "£2.14 please" she says, and out of my pocket comes a huge handful of loose change, i took forever to count through it (not on purpose), then gave her my estimation of the right amount and stood there while she horrifyingly looked at me then proceeded to count it

at this point i chose not to make eye contact with the guy who let me go infront of him!
