I guess I've got to swing by Harris Teeter since Food Lion sucks monkey nuts.
Yes, we are speaking of the cereal people. Most of their stuff is good and has decent fiber & fat counts.
I could not agree with you more about Food Lion sucking monkey nuts! After they closed the pharmacy in ours with 3 weeks notice, putting 2 guys out of a job, who were like having a couple of uncles at the pharmacy, and not listening to their customers. I HATE that store but not quite with the same conviction as WALMART.
But really, how hard is it to bag a twelve pack, a frozen pizza and personal lubricant
And I'll be God-(expletive) if I use one of the self checkout lines again unless they are giving a discount. I'm not working for no pay for a for- profit corporation.
Gee, if that's ALL I was buying, I wouldn't have a problem with it. What pisses me off is when on Saturday night, when I've got a cart full, the assholes actually expect me to use the self checkout, when I'm spending over $100 in your store, you damn well better open a real line. Not to mention, the damn thing yells at you constantly, "put the item back in the bag." Agreed wholeheartedly, it's putting someone else out of a job, I refuse to use them unless I ABSOLUTELY have to.
As for the social engineering aspect, we all need to be a little protectionist about jobs here, we've lost enough without losing cashier & wait staff jobs too. Not to mention, how wonderful would dining out be if all the choices we had were automats, cafeterias and Sheetz? It could truly come to that. McDonald's is actually testing an ordering system like Sheetz already has in place.
