To all Holiday Shoppers at Wal-Mart: Here are a few tips to make the upcoming holiday easier for other shoppers, namely me:
1.
DO NOT use the self-checkout to check out your cart load of groceries. Self-checkout is only for 15 items or less. I was in line Saturday at the self checkout and this lady was in front of me and she had a month's worth of groceries in her cart while all I had was a wedding card!
2.
IF YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW TO USE SELF-CHECKOUT: PLEASE go to the regular checkout. I don't have time for you to punch all the buttons trying to figure it out.
3.
CASHIERS: this is for you: If you see that someone needs assistance,
DO NOT just sit there and just give out random information.
GET UP from behind your little stand and come and
DO YOUR JOB!! Case in point: Today, Hubby and I purchased 10 gift bags. I knew there was a key in the self-checkout computer that allowed you to scan one item and then key in the quantity, thus avoiding us to have to scan each bag one by one, but I forgot how to get to it. I asked the cashier who was over the self-checkout for help. She ignored us. Hubby was willing to scan each one. I said hell no and got the manager who gladly showed us how to do that. I gleefully informed the manager that the cashier did not assist us. I'm sure she got written up.
And so these are my tips that will assure you that you will not get beat down by me at Wally World during the Christmas Holidays. Happy Shopping!!
