Being down on your luck at the grocery store / other part 2

Tweet

Okay to continue what I was saying. Again, sorry that I had to put it into two parts, but I wanted to make sure it was all read and nothing was cut off. I've not personally been on food stamps myself, but grew up in a family that used them. I know about having to choose food etc though I wasn't ever part of the big choosing. I remember asking if I could have the flintstones pushups, but that's all I really remember. In any case, I understand the embarrassment they must be going through when they have to put a lot back. This, I am talking more about food stamps, but I still feel that they know they're not going to be able to get it all.. and regardless, they also know we can't give it to them for free, UNLESS, it's something very cheap in value. Okay here's another thing. Not many people do this but some do. There is a little table that people can put their items on if they've not got a cart. I try to point it out, offer people to set their items down if I'm still helping someone else etc. What I don't like is when people put the items on the scanner. I don't always get a chance to, or think to point out the table. Sometimes though I pull the table out, they put some of their items on it and then the rest instead of handing to me they put on the scanner. If I'm not careful, I pick it up and it scans again. Some people are smart enough to put it on the scale, and not on the scanner itself. *PART II QUESTIONS* Are you one of those people? What do you think of this part of the discussion? btw, negative responses will get you a one way ticket to exclamation mark land, where you'll realize you won't earn a cent from my discussion bucko!
