But I am also of the mind that if I forget something (and I rarely do, because I am one of those that LOVES to walk each & every aisle), then it's just too bad. The only time I've EVER gone back is if Nathan is with me and we still have a while left in line. I only go to the store with a list about half the time.

I never abandon my cart to go after the missed item. I just tell myself to get it the next time around. Especially if there are others waiting. I hate to make others wait because I hate to wait.

I think she shops at the store where I do! In addition to one or two last minute line-abandonment-dashes, she also writes a check - as in a paper check. Which no one in their right mind uses anymore at the grocery store. Whatever. She can right a check. But, it would be nice if she took the time to fill out the name of the store or the date or anything while she is waiting. But no, she takes out her checkbook only after the cashier has totaled her purchase. And then we wait while she carefully records the amount in the register and slowly, with perfect penmanship, writes out her damn check. I love this lady. oh, I know this lady!

This is why I shop at night... I only have to compete with those buying beer and chips and they usually want to get out F A S T. Oh, I’m sorry… that was me.
