Things that annoy you in supermarkets

1) parents who allow their children to stand in trollies

not only for safety but it is really bad food hygiene

2) parents who do nothing when their little darling is screaming loud enough to be heard the other side of the store

3) people who think their phone call is that important that they will be glued to their mobile through the whole checkout process and thus taking twice as long to pack their damn shopping

When the person in front has about 25 items in the 12 items or less queue and the cashier just accepts it.

People who leave their trolleys across the aisle so I can't get past
Kids who run around the store screaming etc
People who stand in groups talking blocking aisles
People who don't know how to work self service machines
People standing too close to me when I'm trying to pay for my shopping with my card, if you want to pay for my shopping go right ahead!
People in the car park walking very slowly in the middle of the lane so I can't drive past them


Actually, now that I think about it, people in general annoy me in supermarkets! I get trolley rage in supermarkets so I try & avoid it as much as possible!

People who use the "Baskets Only" lane with a trolley full to the brim with the months groceries, despite the massive sign hanging from the roof saying "Baskets Only"
Even more annoying is the member of staff who then proceeds to serve them.

OMG I never realised I was being so disrespectful by parking next to posh cars. Will try to know my place in future...

That wasn't the point I was making. The point is that I park miles away from any other cars with loads of parking spaces around me but then someone parks right next to me.

I've no doubt that people who have cars that are not considered "posh" (another poster originally used this word) are just as concerned about people parking too close and risking getting dents in their car.

Self checkout with enough space for about 4 items!

Yes Tesco Kilburn im talking about your hideous self checkout machines, the only ones I have ever seen where you stow your items on a tiny ledge at the top!!

I pile the whole lot on the counter and take my time putting it into the correct slots in my wallet. SO annoying for the staff who just want speedy thru'-put.

Reminds me of people who use pick and mix and eat it whilst wondering around doing the rest of there shopping surely that's theft?

Only if they leave the store. Although it could be interesting when you ask them to prove you left the store with their goods.

Only things i hate about shopping ... Other shoppers....

And supermarkets that move stuff. I goto the same isle/place for the same goods i always buy and when its not there i go without. Too lazy to go looking for it.
And being a man of course i wont ask directions
