Grocery Stores
Spin off from the gas thread, because someone in there got me thinking.
At a certain grocery store here in Houston, the cashiers actually take your groceries out of the cart for you. There's no conveyor belt, you just push your cart up, and everything is done for you. I have been to grocery stores in at least 10 different states, and I've never seen this before, except maybe at the Costco/Sams Club.
In FL, half the time, there's no bagger, so you bag your own groceries - which didn't bother me, because that way the eggs and bread doesn't end up in the same bag as the huge laundry detergent bottle, or canned goods. But here, it's like once you pull an item from a shelf and put it in your cart, you can't touch it again until you leave the store. People will stand there and wait for the cashier to not only take the items out of the cart, ring them up, and then bag them. This takes forever, I don't see why people can't bag their own groceries.
Is this common in grocery stores in Texas? Anywhere else?
