This morning we got up early and rushed out the door so we could go shopping early in the morning. Why? The simple reason is - I hate shopping in Wal-Mart when it is crowded. People bump into you, the stand in one spot and by the time they move you forget why you are in that particular aisle. Early in the morning there are so few people that you can shop leisurely and look around. I like to take my time and really look at things. It was wonderful to go shopping this morning without all the noise, hurry, and bumps.

Late night is the same way. That's when I prefer to go shopping, but it hasn't seemed to work that way lately. I've had to endure the noise and bumps, and empty shelves. I'm glad you got a nice leisurely shopping done this morning.

@HazySue Us night owls get the advantage of the stockers restocking all the empty shelves. Early morning shoppers get the same advantage because the influx of people doesn't happen until after 7 AM.

@just4him I am a morning person so late night isn't good for me. I'm glad it is like that then for those who are night owls.

I do the same thing to my local grocery store that opens up at 7AM i go early on saturday so no one is there because i hate when people are behind me and I usually have alot of coupons i use to get as much for my money and people seem to get aggrevated because of all the coupons, but nothing i can really do but be patient and hope that i dont spend alot of money. If i go early in the morning like you did not as many people are there shopping but then not alot of cashiers open either and that becomes a problem as well for me.

@HazySue Yes i understand. I just hate it when someone comes up behind me when i do couponing and always trying to save money. People look at you with weird looks.

@lologirl2021 you are trying to save money. They print coupons for a reason, they want you to use them. If people don't like it they can just go to another line.

@lologirl2021 I like the early morning because of the lower number of people running around in the store. Also, even though there are less cashiers I don't have to wait in line as long as I have to later in the day when there are more.

I see you are in the aisles where they have food and such, I would not buy any food at WalMart as you don't know where the food comes from since they have so many products coming from China that I don't trust.

@HazySue I wouldn't buy much there either especially meats. I just don't feel comfortable buying anything in their grocery section.

@Marcyaz I do buy food there because they have the same brands as the regular grocery store. I don't by meat there.

@infatuatedbby I really do like to get all of my running around outside the house early in the day. Somehow I can get more done inside when I finish my outside stuff early.

Our supermarket gets busy from time to time too usually soon after school gets out! That's a good time to avoid.

That's when we like to go to is in the mornings I can't stand when it's crowded like that people are so rude sometimes. I get stared out cause I have to use one of those electric wheel chairs that is when one is available. I get strange looks and forget trying to get through an asile with one people act like they dont see you or something.

I have found some people at Walmart to be very rude. Others are nice. I like going early too.
