I was rushing through the grocery store this morning, picking up some things for our first homeschool support group meeting (which went fabulously!), and grabbing a few things for home as well--I knew they'd stay cold in the trunk.
When we got to checkout, the four self-checkout lines were busy, and I was in a hurry, so we went to the express self-checkout. It's only supposed to be for 12 items or fewer, but there was no line, and plenty of spots open.
I realized that the reason there were so many spots is that there is only room for two bags for your groceries. I'd take bags off, or not bag stuff at all (using my own bags), and it would hiccup the system. So it wasn't as smooth as I would have hoped.
What I really needed was a cart that would let me scan my groceries and keep a running tally as I put things in it. Maybe with hooks along the side to hold bags, so the items would all be bagged as I went. Then, all I'd have to do when I was finished was go to the front and pay. Wouldn't that be fabulous and efficient?
