Caution, Wide Load!
November 1st 2006 16:23
A grocery store is a mom's biggest nightmare. I would really like to know who designed the check-out aisles vs. the grocery carts. Some stores offer carts that seat more than one child. Great! You think, untill checkout time....
We are all aware that the evil candy companies strategically place candy at the check out. Right within a child's grasp. But why in the heck do they design carts that are too wide to fit down the check-out aisle? There you are, a screaming 5 month old, tantrum throwing 3 year old, cart full of groceries, and a skinny aisle that is impossible to navigate through.
Waiting in line is stressful enough. You are fighting with your toddler as they rip through packs of cigarettes, throwing them on the floor. Why should American mom's have to worry about knocking products over and causing even more embarassment? And the looks you get from elderly people. At this point you want to strangle your kids. But, there is always someone just waiting for you to smack your kids so they can call the cops. If only the grocery store would widen their lanes, it would make life so much easier, not to mention... pleasant.
Just when I think my horrific shopping experience is at an end, I smack right into the door because my cart is so big, I can't see anything in front of it! And of course stuff falls out all over the floor. Short people beware! Shopping carts aren't only stressful, they're down right dangerous!
