    1) Jeans that are consitered "short" arent even short.
    2) When people dont have the enough manners to refold things!
    3) When the girl behind the counter looks at me weird when i pick up the case of water below my cart with one hand and just put it on the little machine.
    4) when there's SO many choices i cant decide!

    Forgot one- the "crowders". The one's who inch right up on you in line, like they think hovering a half an inch from me will make the checker ring up my items faster, or make me move away quicker. Nope. Makes me want to stand there ALL DAY. :tongue:

    When a family with two adults has a small child who is in full screaming melt down but they don't have one of them take the child outside to the car to calm down. It's stress inducing for the other shoppers and bad for the child.

    I almost put that, but didn't know a nice way to say it...haha! My husband and I always end up sitting next to a child having a total meltdown during dinner, in the movies, church, at the grocery store. It never fails. It is our inside joke now. We have come to expect it. Kids will be kids, but please take them out for a minute to calm down.

    "You are in the line and have been waiting long, then another register opens and the person announces "I'll help the next in line" which ends up being not being next but the last person in line."


    Ha - too funny! Mine is shopping for clothes, which I rarely do. Trying them on and hoping there's a larger size. What a hassle to shop for clothes especially the time spent trying them on.

    I hate the pharmacy line at the store. There's always some disgruntled old bag in front of me wondering why it's too early to pick up their meds, and just standing there arguing about it when it's the insurance company not the pharmacist they need to be talking to. Oh and one time I was in line at the pharmacy, had to stop there on my way to work... And this woman on one of those mobile shopping carts pulls up behind everyone and goes "I need to cut in line I'm in a hurry" so two people let her go in front of them, when she got to me I said "Sorry i can't" "But im in a hurry" "So am i, im on my way to work".... This woman backs up her scooter, and literally CHARGES at me. She tried to run me over so i had to kick and push the basket to keep her from hitting me. Self defense I swear :)

    Seriously, I hate shopping. Nothing puts me in a foul mood faster than an hour in a store.

    When people take up the whole isle and when you say excuse me they look at you like you're stupid and don't move. It always tempts me to shove them out of the way yelling move b**** instead...

    Move b**** get out the whey!!

    Well that is pretty annoying. That's why they invented hand scanners.


    I hate going into a small store and having the people that work there each come up to me every five minutes to ask if I need help finding anything or to tell me about the sales.

    I don't like dirty carts with napkins, tissues, litter in them. Why not clean out the carts between customers. It's nasty!
    Why not customers throw their own stuff away? While I understand that it may be needed to be done, putting all on the establishment shouldn't entirely be expected.

    Mine is people who are TOO DAMN LAZY to put their carts in the cart collector. Leaving a cart in a parking spot, or worse propped up on an island right next to mine.

    my HERO!!!! :flowerforyou:
    im a bagger at a grocery store, and i have to collect carts. i HATE it when people leave their trash in the carts! its not that hard to toss a wipe away after you wipe down the handle, or to toss the sample cup. heck, when you are at the checkout, hand it to the cashier and ask them to throw a away in the trash can in the check stand! when i am out there collecting carts, and there is trash in a cart, of course ill throw it away because im not going to leave trash in there! but dang people are lazy! i also hate that people are too lazy to walk a few feet away to put their cart in the cart return in the parking lot. they usually park it in a planter, next to the car next to them (where it could cause damage to that car), or in an empty parking spot, which prevents someone from parking there (or they will park there anyways and make it impossible to get the cart since it is pretty much wedged between the front ends of 2 cars)! it makes it so much easier for us to do our job, and return the carts to the return at the front of the store when you put the cart in the return out in the parking lot.

    I echo just about every thing mentioned here, and must add one. I HATE when I go to a store to get that one item that's on special, along with a few other items, and that one super special item is ALL GONE because the raving hordes have gotten there first with their fistfuls of coupons, and little ole me just wanted 1 or 2 of them. Argh!!

    People in pajama pants or sweats! Really should try to put decent clothes on when going into public!

    whoops. that would be me.

    but really? pajama pants or sweats? there are worse things people can (and do) wear in public. many times I will go shopping right before or after i go to the gym...and guess what i'm wearing? well - maybe not pajama pants, but i havent ruled it out yet. (sometimes you just run out of gym clothes...it happens)

    i try to go shopping when i know it wont be busy, so i tend to avoid the overcrowding in the aisles, but i can't stand when someone is standing there right in front of something you need, taking forever to make a decision. i also get frustrated when there is a line all the way to the aisles and only one or two registers open. also when people ask if they can help me find anything. if more than 2 people ask me, i find my way to the nearest exit.

    Pushy sales people.

    If you ask me once if I need help, and I tell you no... leave me alone. Ask me again and I will cut you. I HATE being hoovered over. I just want to look at shoes. :sad:

    When my husband rushes me - shopping is relaxing and i Love reading lables!

    Definitely this. My husbutt drives me crazy when we shop. But, it's not the labels I want to look at. I am drawn to bright sparkly things, clothes, and makeup.
