What winds you up in the supermarket? One of my many iritations is people who stop in front of a shelf with their trolley in front of them then stand their like a zombie 10 feet of shelf, usually where I want to pick something up. Then they look all offended when you have the temerity to shove their trolly down the other end of the isle!

pensioners on a Saturday morning when they've got ALL WEEK TO SHOP!!
|

I dont like it whan they start packing my bags putting about 3 items in each. I live in flat and need as less bags as possible
|
|
|
Aisles that are blocked with stock boxes and pallets!
Young staff that have to shout to the girl with the keys to come and process my purchase of booze!
Said girl moving off when she blantantely see the next customer has booze!

My local supermarket is next to a coach park where twice a week dozens of coaches disgorge hundreds of OAP's we call "comforts." (Ah've comfor' t' day).
Half an hour before they are due to go home they mooch aimlessly around the supermarket, blocking the aisles and whingeing about the prices/quality/their bunions/the weather etc.)
Occasionally I long for a machine gun.

I totally agree Zacsmaster, it drives me nuts when I'm in the supermarket at lunchtime trying to buy something in a hurry to get back to work and some cauliflower head is shuffling along in front of me hogging the entire aisle!!!!
I do understand that some pensioners still work, but it's the folk that do have all day to shop but insist on going in at lunchtime that I object to.
Supermarkets do sell germoline and incontenence products all day long you know.

I live in the philosophy that, if something annoying can happen, it will. That way I'm never surprised when:
1/ I chose what looks like the fastest queue, but it invariably turn out that something won't scan, or the till will stop working, or the person in front is the biggest moron in the history of the universe.
2/ If I went to the shop specifically for one thing, they will not have it in stock, or they have "just sold the last one".
3/The bags will be so stuck together that I will spend an age and a half trying to open one, whilst being looked at by everyone in the queue, AND the cashier, like the biggest moron in the history of the universe.
4/ Arrive home to find that the oil/shampoo/conditioner has leaked over everything else.
Zen.

I hate it when someone with a couple of items is too lazy to go to the 10 items or less and expect you to let them through quickly. I never do ;D

well i work in a supermarket and my biggest complaint is MOANING CUSTOMERS lol :))
|
|

OOps! Spoke too soon re. home delivery. Ordered 8 mach3 blades for hubby & they're still in their security packaging! Says its alarmed, will it go off if we break it open?

EVERYTHING about the supermarket bugs me, that's why i've done it online since they started doing online supermaket shopping!!! takes me 10mins and it's fantastic, only go to the butchers for the meat :)

Definitely pensioners at the weekend, I'm pretty sure most 80 & 90 year olds don't work!! Why on earth do they want to be there on a busy Saturday morning when they've got all week to go???!!!

I usually find that pensioners tend to go out most days, it gives them something to do and help fills up their day. It's also a social thing for most of them if they live alone, even if it is just chatting to the cashier.

wonky trollies are the thing that wind me up! Tescos are awful for it, i never fail to get one with a dodgy wheel.
|
|
|
the cashier piles the till receipt and notes and coins in your palm leaving you stuck (esp if like me you have arthritic wrists) winds me up
|
|

people who use those mobilitty scooters, but obviously dont need them. Lazy sods! I used to work in morrisons, and there were one or two people who would diliberatley drive in so they could barge their way through, then park in the same old place, get out, get what they want from the isle, and then drive back pushing through people like their royalty. It winds me up. Mainly because im the stupid fool whos probably paying for them to be so fat and lazy.

Danny agree entirely!, they are like a electric scooter formation coming down our shopping centre, i am sure all they need is a couple of idots balancing on there shoulders, some carry there dogs others small children are sitting on there lap!!!!

What annoys me is the time the fire alarm goes off (just for training purposes ) It always goes off at about 8-30 ish in the morning when people are rushing around to do their shopping before going to work or at lunchtime, again when people haven't got much time and you have to all leave your shopping and stand outside for 15 minutes, this happens all the time at our local Tescos. Grrrrr.

I do silently moan when there's an elderly person in front of me dithering but I think that will be me in 50 yrs time and feel awful for thinking such horrid thoughts!
People who abuse the hand baskets and less than 10 items really bug me too and I find myself counting what they have!! If it is more I always say it loudly to whoever I'm with 'look this is the 10 items queue'!
It really is sad when you think about it.
