I always get a few candy bars and maybe some gum. Now if you go to Wal Mart they have a lot more stuff to chose from. you know they do that on purpose just so you spend more money! LOL

At the checkout stands it depends on what catches our eyes. Mostly I grab a bottle of pop or water to drink on the ride home. Sometimes mom has grabbed a pack of pens or a cheap bottle of hand soap for the bathroom.

I never buy anything at the checkout stands.
I often purchase more products from a supermarket than I originally went in to buy, and even browse around for a while to see if anything interests me but by the time that I am queueing to pay I have selected all that I am going to buy. I am a victim of impulse shopping just like anyone else, but I dislike the practice of pushing products under my nose while I am waiting to make my purchase.

This is an easy one to answer.
As soon as I get up there to pay, I see chocolate and cold sodas. I grab a Kit Kat or a Reeces Peanut Butter Cup with a Pepsi almost every time. I can't resist!!

It never fails, I always go for candy and a soda. Every time. Darn them for putting those things there! It is just horrible! When my husband is with me he will laugh because he watches me try so hard to resist, but then I always give in. I can't help myself. Just like a kid in a candystore! hehe

I usuallu have all my shopping done by the time I get to the checkouts. However, on the odd occasion, I may purchase some batteries, or if I feel a bit peckish and they have some nice tempting chocolate bars, well the I will indulge in one.
