Hey guys!
When I go to the check out of my local store, I always line up my shopping on the conveyor belt.
It has to be perfectly aligned parallel to the sides of the belt. Everything in grouped in order, if I buy several of the same item it will be lined up side-by-side. If I don't do it that way, or if something isn't sitting with it's edge lined up, I'll have to sort it before it gets bleeped through the till or else I find I get a bit irritated and edgy.
If the person serving on the till then bleeps through my items NOT in the order I lined them up, this also really irritates me because I always arrange things so they would make the most logical order to be packed (that is, heavy bulky things first so they go in the bottom of the bag, then things like popcorn/eggs and fragile items go in the bag last)
Am I alone in this or do any of you guys also find yourself doing this?
This is a fabulous topic! I don't line up but there is something I do.
I put the heaviest items on the conveyor belt first. Then the lighter items. Lastly, I put items like eggs, bread, anything that is soft and fluffy always goes last.
I do this because I have gotten home with smashed loaves of bread in the past and had to learn the hard way
