I am too patient to stand in a queue for long time, whether it is for shopping or any thing other than that. How about you? Will you prefer to stand in a queue for a long time to get your thing? During festival season there is normally huge rush everywhere. When is the last time you stood in a queue for more than an hour or so to make a purchase?

i am little impatient when comes to queues, i don't really like wasting so much of my shopping time in them, but i will if i really want the items.. Just matter of having to deal with it
but in general, i would do my shopping when i believe it not be as busy, Saturdays i try to avoid as its much busy in the town then and wouldn't get parked up anyway

I, also, am too impatient, as a rule, to stand in long lines. There are two reasons besides being impatient, one: I can think of more productive ways to spend my time, two: standing for a long period of time makes my legs ache unbearably. The last time I stood in a long line had to be at the commissary. I had spent over an hour selecting groceries for the next couple of weeks. I could not abandon my cart. One can make an educated guess as to when the check out line will long or short, but one never knows for sure. Another time that I remember standing in a long line was waiting for my annual flu shot. I had traveled with a neighbor to the nearest army base where they were giving shots in a gymnasium. The line was twice around the gym floor. After that, I found another source for my flu shots.
