    I like it when I pull up and there's a cart for me to grab. I usually ride it like a scooter to the entrance.

    I love my wife tremendously. I seriously have not one complaint in my marriage. Not a single one. But **** if isn't good on the psyche to have hot women flirt with you, tell you how cute your kids are, and tell your kids what a great dad they must have to take them to the store all alone. That, plus a) my wife not spending tons of money on extra stuff at the store (OK, maybe one complaint) and b) her loving that I took the kids meaning she's just as flirty as the women at the store is a nice trade-off.

    This is true. Women's brains simply are incapable of only purchasing things that are needed. (it's science)

    Of course this only affects poverty brahs like RM95, not me.

    The shopping cart population is increasing everyday and becoming a nuisance to the Kroger and Lowe's communities.

    Petition to put down all wild shopping carts.

    Yeah, I gotta leave the AC on, or they get cranky. Leave the AC on, and they're nice and sleepy by the time I get back.


    I've taken my 4 kids to the store on several occasions, and I'll get a number of comments about how brave I am, or such a good father, or sympathy for how hard it must be for me. My wife can take the same 4 kids to the store and get nothing but rolleyes.

    That's the sacker's responsibility, at least it was when I was doing it for $4.35/hour minus union dues in high school.

    What type of hippie grocery stores don't have sackers?

    Yes, he can walk. At 5 months.

    Of course he can't walk. I said I walk with them which means that I carry him and my 3 year old holds my hand while she walks. It is the same way that we miraculously make it into the store without a cart.

    I don't remember Whole Foods having any, but I only went there when I lived in Omaha because it was next to work. I don't remember them having formal uniforms or dress codes either, more than a few ganja beanies and Dr. Seuss type hats.

    There are a few stores that are relying more on self-checking. The town I'm in now has self-checkouts that are bigger than just a little kiosk, they have a whole conveyor belt so you can actually ring up and sack a whole cart.
