I think that's where DD's "Herds" start, the ones I see are invariably late gen 'Y' or 'M's, obviously single, usually of the same same sex, with abundant tattoo's and torn clothes, and they shop haphazardly - perambulating the same aisle several times because their social shopping list is alphabetically arranged.
@Cinisajoy - not all people own cars, so drive by pickup is not an option even if it were available - which it's not around here. But what is available from some of the smaller (owner-operated) stores is home delivery - I think its about $7. And, if you're a known customer (by sight) and you ask for help to get your groceries to your car, then the person at the checkout will rustle up a shelf stacker to wheel your trolley.
@Hitch - stuff moving irritates me too, much more than other customers. In our small stores where I'm known I complain at the checkout. If its not too busy they go and find it for me and tell me where it was - often sighing because it was in an odd place, e.g. tinned passion fruit (fresh were out of season) on the top shelf of the cookie shelves.
