Idk who that man is beyond I’ve never seen him expressing any emotion other than social anxiety he’s like the socially awkward version of the Terminator
I do this on purpose to prevent myself from buying to much. I KNOW I’ll get more than I came for, lack of basket or cart puts an upper limit on how much
I explained this to me children and how carts are for the weak. My then 8 year old announced loudly when she was shopping with mommy right by the carts “mommy don’t take a cart, those are for the weak”.
Wife wasn’t too thrilled about it and was even less thrilled when I laughed.
I’ve done this at Costco myself a number of times.
“Ah, I just need a bag of coffee and a thing of multivitamins. … Oh, we could use some smoked salmon. And, another bottle of Malbec. Maybe some frozen waffles… Ooh, they’re selling Amish-built sheds!”
And, then, I’m either manhandling half the store to the register, or I’m putting the stuff aside somewhere—looking a bit like one of those careless people who can’t be bothered to put stuff back—and making the walk of shame to get a cart.
Yea this happened to me at Costco when I forwent the cart and ended up deciding my dog needed a new bed. And then I decided I was to proud to grab one on the way out. I am such an idiot most of the time.
Yeah, I was going to say. I’m too paranoid to put things in the bags I bring in. Not up for the drama with an over zealous anybody and inching up the chances of getting shot.
The grocery stores in my country make you scan a barcode on the bag every time. “Luckily” they pay their staff minimum wage and treat them like crap, so you can usually start bagging your stuff and most of the time nobody cares (not that I’d know from experience or anything)
Costco doesn’t even have baskets, at least the one I go to. So it’s either carry by hand or a cart. So I carry by hand, which keeps me from overspending every trip because I can only carry like 4 or 5 things. I buy for myself only anyway so it’s usually enough for the week.
