First bad experience at my grocery store
So I skip the Lucky's near my house (gross store with even grosser (word? lol) employees) and go to the Safeway in the next town whenever I go grocery shopping.
Love that store, never have a problem, it's clean and so are it's employees. But today...yikes!  :? The checker was texting while working and I had to get her attention twice because the keypad wasn't working right. Then the bagger did a terrible job bagging and spent more time trying to talk to me about what I was making and how much he liked the stuff I was buying. WTH?! The assclown put the case of beer and the gallon of milk on the bottom shelf of the cart because he didn't fill the cart very well and it was full. (During this the guy behind me almost rammed his shopping cart into me because he was getting impatient with the slow bagger and clueless twit of a checker.)

When I VERY SLOWLY pushed my cart out of the store the beer and milk fell into the parking lot and spilled everywhere. OY!  Luckily the girl who collects the carts was walking by and offered to go get me replacements.

On top of that the bagger totally bagged everything wrong. Some bags had two light things in them and some single bags had like 10 cans in them!!

I'm thinking of calling up the store and letting them know all this. I don't normally complain about little mistakes or issues when I go shopping but what a pain.

Who was it on here that said the Monday after Friday the 13th was worse? Cause I'm thinking she's right. lol. :winkb:

 LOL... so maybe your experience wasn't funny but the story is!  Dude, the grocery store we go to has the best prices by far and we put up with all of that garbage every week.  I swear, they bag things wrong just for the fun of it. :waiting:

 That's pretty much every grocery store around here but they don't take the time to put the groceries in your cart.

I for one am always turned on by someone who has a career in grocery store bagging.   I would make sure to jump right on that.

 Dude- that SUCKS, Shannon, but you re-tell it so funny I can't help but crack up!

While we're on the topic of dumb cashiers- I have started doing the no limit self-check at Meijer because the cashiers always load up my reuseable bags so heavy you can barely lift them! And I also hate that the cashiers shove your change at you (without counting it back) and start checking out the next person before you can even get your $ in your wallet and your bags in the cart- happened to me today at Target!

That stinks, we usually go to the self checkout or the lines you bag yourself.

Re: First bad experience at my grocery store
 what an aweful experience!  That's the kind of thing that always happens to me.  I say oh, this store has more on sale, I should go here.  And then all kinds of bad stuff will happen.  I always make the wrong decisions when I think I've made the right ones then I kick myself.  Go home and drink that beer girl :winkb:

Re: First bad experience at my grocery store
 ps:  and yes, I would definitely complain about the cashier and the bagger.  Text on your own time and the dumb kid may have been able to bagyour groceries a little better if he weren't so busy trying to make time with you, which while I am sure was a little flattering, what a dufus!  Our girl is so much better than THAT! ha!!!!
