my sister got me started on this and i kinda took the ball and ran. it's really not hard when it's just you, once you get your system down, i spend like 2 hours a week figuring out if im buying and getting my strategy down. but if you're shopping for like 3+ people it would be so time consuming.

it's also awesome to know that if i decided i needed a break i could probably go at least a year before i'd have to buy any toiletries, at least 3 months paper products, minimal food purchases for maybe 2 months (fruits/veg only)
if i really felt like hoarding i could go much longer, but i don't do that. i have no room. i just give the shit away if it's completely free and i don't need it, or i pass it up... like i can get super cheap/free or close to free salad dressing most of the time, but seriously i have like 10 bottles what am i going to do start drinking it |

not to mention that in america there are explicit rules about placing items such as money or credit cards on the conveyor belt idk what sort of lawlessness canada condones
|
in canada they probably have 5 lines for 3 registers
|

|
yea this is not the first time you've brought up how much toilet paper you have stockpiled :erm:

basically don't put shit on the belt that could get caught in it. because it will get lost and/or broken. |

also it's just me and you here. we're just talking.

my local wal-mart still has these signs posted. |
if your loyalty card is on your smart phone then I have no solutions for you. All my advice comes from my dad in the 90s.

stuff does get caught, gift cards, money, etc and 99% of the time it gets caught in a tray that is meant to catch these things and large debris so they don't just build up in the machine itself. but once a while something goes in and we cannot get it out. |

some people dont use them though and expect me to have telepathy and know when their order starts/ends |
i don't do loyalty cards myself. issues against data mining.

they see that i've opened. i have no way to move to them, so they must move to me. i will usually pick someone to come to the line who is in an advanced place in their line, but who still has the backfield accessible to them. besides that, yes i have little responsibility for others behaving fairly towards each other, since i can only do one thing at a time and cannot account for every customer and where they are on their respective lines. ;) |

i like the CVS rewards program a lot better, too, but Walgreens is across the block from me so I mostly go there.
But I like my neighborhood Walgreens because everyone there is really friendly and it's convenient. Plus, they often have sales on cereal and milk is 1.99/gallon. |
and i thought i was bad-ass for the buy 1 - get 2 free Purex and Arm and Hammer detergent deal.
